A toddler, a mother, and four other individuals have sustained various degrees of injuries in a shooting incident at Obuasi Kwabenakwa in the Ashanti Region.
The incident occurred when a man identified as Kofi Cole fired shots in celebration of a court victory in a chieftaincy dispute.
Information available indicates that the toddler sustained injuries in the leg and is currently in a critical condition.
The others who sustained injuries have since been treated and discharged.
Some eyewitnesses claimed the suspect joined the victors in the dispute, who went around the community with rickshaws in celebration of their victory.
During the process, shots were fired into the air, leading to the injuries.
The Assemblyman for the Kwabenakwa Electoral Area, Charles Abu, told journalists that the one who fired the shots is known for causing trouble.
“This is the first time I have heard about him firing shots, but he has often caused trouble in the area,” he said.
He further disclosed that the toddler is still on admission due to his condition.
