Suspect arrested after Uppsala shooting that killed three

3 injured in gun battle between two youth groups

Three people have sustained injuries in a shooting incident between two youth groups over a parcel of land in the business district of the Northern Region, Ghana.

Tension started building up when one group laid claim to the land, asserting ownership. They destroyed the cordon and materials on the site.

Another group confronted them, leading to an exchange of gunfire between the two groups.

The ownership of the land remains unclear, but reports suggest it belongs to some influential New Patriotic Party figures in the region.

“Two people sustained gunshot wounds to their legs, while a third person was accidentally run over by a vehicle,” an eyewitness said.

“When it happened, they started shooting. Two people were hit by bullets, and the third guy was hiding behind a vehicle when it accidentally ran over him,” the eyewitness added.

The matter has since been reported to the Northern Regional Police for further investigation.
