Local News Violent clashes in Kwabre East leaves scores injured


Violence has broken out at Ahwiaa, a community in the Kwabre East district of Ashanti region between some youth in the Zongo community and Asantes on Saturday morning.

A number of residents were severely injured and hospitalized when confusion broke.
The fights started three days ago when some youth from the Zongo community joined another group in the Asante community who were mourning a dead sister.

It is unclear yet what had triggered the incident but everything went bad at the celebration grounds and became worse Saturday.
Sources say it may have stemmed from a long-standing dispute that has existed between both factions for years.

The early hours of Saturday saw the situation develop into a more chaotic one, forcing residents to return to the various homes.

Roads were also closed to traffic and commuters had to walk from long distances to work.
Both groups attacked each other with machetes among other fatal weapons.

Joint military-police personnel have so far been dispatched to the area to restore calm and control the situation.
