One Feared Dead, Several Injured in Horrific STC Van-Tricycle Crash in Ho
One person is feared dead, and several others have sustained varying degrees of injuries following a devastating collision between an STC van and a tricycle near the Fidelity Bank stretch in Ho around 9:30 PM on Monday.
According to eyewitnesses, the STC van, which was reportedly speeding from the direction of Accra, forcefully rammed into the tricycle. The impact was severe, leaving one victim lying in a pool of blood with visible head trauma and exposed brain matter, raising fears of an instant fatality.
Emergency services responded swiftly, transporting the injured to the Ho Teaching Hospital for urgent medical attention.
A passenger aboard the van, Apostle Prosper Agbeti, attributed the crash to the driver’s recklessness.
“The driver was making and receiving calls throughout the journey while speeding,” he alleged.
Apostle Agbeti dismissed claims by some bystanders that the accident may have been caused by brake failure, insisting it was due to “total negligence.”
Other passengers aboard the van suffered injuries ranging from deep cuts to suspected fractures. All have been admitted for further medical evaluation and treatment.
