Some irate youth have besieged the Bawjiase police station in the Central region demanding to lynch a suspected car snatcher, Francis Ayitey.

According to them, Francis is a hardened notorious criminal known for snatching unregistered vehicles in the Asamankese area.

Due to this, the angry youth are demanding for him to be released so they can lynch him in a revenge attack.

Meanwhile, the Bawjiase Police Commander, ASP Bernard Norgah in an interview with Adom News’ Kofi Adjei urged the youth to remain calm whiles the law takes it course.

“It happened in Asamankese, he was pursued by motorists, he drove through Bawjiase and the patrol team there caught him.

“The Bawjiase police have amassed a thick mob seeking to lynch him. But we are doing everything possible to stop that from happening….” He said.
