Man attacked in his sleep over a child in Ghana

A 39-year-old farmer is currently fighting for his life at the St. Francis Xavier Hospital in Assin Fosu after an unknown man stabbed him with a cutlass while he was sleeping in Ghana.

The victim has three children with his wife, but, another man claims the last born is his, therefore, he’ll do anything possible to take the child, a situation which usually creates confusion between the two men.

“We heard the victim screaming for help in his room when he had returned from work and was in bed,” acccording to eyewitnesses.

They rushed to the scene to find the victim in a pool of blood with his wrist and some of the fingers chopped off and his head, cheek, and back with deep cuts.

The victim was then rushed to the St. Francis Xavier Hospital at Assin Fosu for intensive care, according to Adom News.

The victim is currently in a coma and residents suspect the man who is fighting with him over a child may have committed the crime.

No arrest has been made so far.
