Two Dead, Several Injured After Truck Ran Into Walewale Market

2 persons have died and several others injured after a KIA truck loaded with goods ran into traders at the Walewale market in the North East Region. The accident occurred on Tuesday evening on the main hospital road which is always overcrowded on market

days. The driver of the car with registration number GR 3052 - 17, was heading to Bolgatanga when he lost control after a brake failure and veered off the road into the market. An eyewitness told the media that the situation could have been worsened if the vehicle had

not plunged into a gutter. One of the deceased died on the spot whilst the other died when on admission at the Tamale Teaching Hospital. “Currently, three persons are still on admission at the Hospital after sustaining severe injuries from the incident”.
