'Brave' Taxi Driver To Be REWARDED - Police

The Ghana Police Service says they will be rewarding the 'brave' taxi driver who helped in the arrest of two armed robbers at Cantonment.

The robbers; Obaleko Stanley, 35 and Oko Quarcoo, 30, were said to have attacked their victim, a lady around the Lands Commission area of Cantonments in Accra and shot her.

The brave driver managed to knock down the robbers' motorbike as they tried to escape and they ended up in a gutter with broken legs but still shooting from their seated position.

An eyewitness said it took a military man, driving by, to jump out of his car with a gun to stop the robbers.

In an interview on PEACE FM, Monday, Director of Public Relations of the Ghana Police Service, Superintendent Cephas Arthur said the taxi driver will be awarded to encourage others to do same or more in helping the police arrest criminals.
