In a remarkable show of bravery, a 59-year-old driver, Isaac Ayim, narrowly escaped death after being shot by armed robbers on the Gomoa Akoti-Kwanyako highway in the Central Region.
Despite sustaining gunshot wounds to the head, Ayim managed to drive himself and his assistant to the nearest police checkpoint for help.
The incident occurred during the early hours of Saturday, January 11, when Ayim, driving a Kia truck with his mate, Frimpong Kojo, encountered a group of five armed robbers on the highway.
The robbers reportedly used torchlights to signal the vehicle to stop before opening fire.
