The First-year student of Koforidua Ghana Senior High School (GHANASS) , Joshua Yao Korkpartey Sarfo who on Monday, May 28, 2018, stormed the Koforidua Effiduase Police station with a Pistol and a metallic implement to attack a Police investigator, has been admitted at the Pantang Psychiatric Hospital .
He was initially admitted at the Psychiatric Unit of the Eastern Regional Hospital, Koforidua, after acting strange at Police cells.
Information gathered by Starr News’ Eastern Regional correspondent, Kojo Ansah indicates that the 19-year-old day student who hails from Lashibi in Accra is under investigation for stealing students mattresses in the school but was granted Police enquiry bail.
The student stormed the Police station Monday at about 8:40 am with a metal bar and a locally manufactured pistol with one round of A.A Cartridge in the chamber and threatened to kill the investigator in charge of his case, Noah Oppong.
The situation created a chaotic scene at the Police station when Police officers attempted to disarm the student who had threatened to gun down anyone who comes closer. However, after few minutes, the Police were able to overpower and disarm him.
He was arrested and detained to assist investigation.
The Headmaster of GHANASS, Rev.
