The Gomoa Ojobi District Police Command has arrested two suspected highway robbers after they attacked and robbed a motor rider and a shopkeeper.

In an interview with Adom News, the Okada rider said the suspects who hired his motorbike known in local parlance as Okada, attacked him in the middle of their journey.

 

“They hired my motor from Buduburam Liberia Camp to Senya Breku and on our way, they sprayed pepper into my eyes and took the motor to rob a shopkeeper at Gomoa Kweikrom,” the bike owner narrated.

The Police Commander of the Ojobi District, DSP David Fofie, confirmed the arrest of the two suspects at a press briefing.

 

“The suspects, Stephen Appau, 23 years and Alex Boadu, 25 years were identified by their victims after the Ojobi District Police Command organised an identification parade,” the police said.

DSP Fofie also revealed that investigations were underway to process the suspects for court.
