It was there the team intercepted a pickup Charles Donkor was driving close to the Oyibi checkpoint.

The suspect was signalled to stop but he sped off, according to DCOP Anim’s account.

The police then followed in pursuit following which Charles Donkor opened fire on them.

In the ensuing firefight, Charles Donkor “sustained gunshot wounds and was pronounced dead on arrival at the Police Hospital.”
