The man in his 30s was
caught by a watch dog committee at Awutu Breku in the Central Region of
Ghana on Tuesday.
Speaking about the incident, a member of the watch dog committee,
Kojo Adawu told Adom News’ Kofi Adjei that three other accomplices are
on the run.
He revealed the criminal was arrested after the watch dog committee
put measures in place to track the criminals down after they had gone
to steal from a different town.
“Residents are always complaining of goat thefts in the area
and so we tracked these people who were in a taxi cab. We stopped the
taxi and was able to arrest one but the others have escaped. But we will
arrest them very soon” Adawu said.
The residents have refused to transfer the suspect to the police
station but have resorted to tying him to an electric pole for public
viewing.
The mob who gathered after the incident damaged the taxi cab used for the robbery.
