A man, believed to be in his early 40s, was found dead inside a truck at Nyankyerenease in the Kwadaso constituency of the Ashanti Region on Sunday, October 20, 2024.
The deceased has been identified as James Appiah, popularly known as Atta. According to an eyewitness, Maame Ampofowaa, Atta was last seen sleeping in his parked truck on the main street of Nyankyerenease, with the windows closed.
Ampofowaa mentioned that the truck was poorly parked, obstructing the road, and despite multiple attempts to ask him to move it, he did not respond.
She explained to Citi News that after her unsuccessful efforts to get him to repark, she went home, only to later learn about the tragic discovery.
“I had a back-and-forth confrontation with him around 11 in the morning because of how poorly he had parked. At 1 pm, he still hadn’t moved his car, and I needed to load some things for my clients. I noticed he was sitting and sleeping in the passenger seat, so I decided to leave him alone.
“When I left my shop at 3 p.m., he was still asleep in the car. Later, around 7 pm, I received a call informing me of his passing. The people who called me knew about the altercation I had with him earlier that day.”
