3 dead, one in critical condition as Covid-19 vehicle crashes

At least three passengers onboard a COVID-19 branded pickup crashed into a stationary vehicle at Teacher Mante, a sprawling community along the Accra to Kumasi highway.

Another passenger, believed to be a medical officer, however, survived but is in critical condition at the hospital.

All three, the driver of the vehicle, a property of Ghana Health Service, a woman, and a child on board reportedly died on the spot.

Witnesses claim the gory incident was caused by a tricycle rider who reportedly crossed a Toyota Hilux without observing traffic, compelling it to swerve, but unfortunately hit the rear of the Covid-19 branded pick-up.

The deceased driver lost control as a result of the strong impact forcing the speeding car to veer off and crashed into a stationary trailer truck at the bus stop killing all occupants.

It is believed that it was a medical officer and his family including a woman believed to be his wife, child, and driver who were in the car.
