A policeman has been stabbed by a suspected criminal at Lower McCarthy Hill in Accra.

The policeman, identified as Sammy, was accompanying his children to school, when he was attacked suddenly by the suspect with a knife.

In attempt to disarm the criminal, the policeman (Sammy), shot severally at close range at him but the bullet did not hit the target as the suspect was said to have fortified himself with some black power (juju).

It was after the failed attempt to subdue the suspect that he tried to take the pistol away from the policeman who held on to it firmly.

According to an eye witness, it was in the ensuing struggle that the policeman was stabbed in the right rib after which the suspect took to his heels.

The witness, Quartey said the suspect lived with the mother in the area and was said to be a criminal, harassing residents.

“Sometimes he would come with some boys on motorbike disturbing everybody,” he said. 

Sammy, who survived the attack, is currently receiving treatment at the Police Hospital.

The police have confirmed the incident, saying that the matter was under investigations.

The Head of Public Affairs for the Accra Regional Police Command, Superintendent Juliana Obeng, confirmed the incident to Graphic Online’s Emmanuel Bonney.
