CCTV Footage: Watch How Truck Carrying Timber Crashed Into Bogoso Vehicles Killing One

Days after one person was confirmed dead in a bizarre accident at Bogoso, video footage of the incident, has emerged.

The November 19 incident also left four others injured in an accident involving a Daf truck and five other vehicles in the Western Regional town.

Police investigation has disclosed that the driver of the Daf truck, carrying logs from the Prestea end of the road, upon reaching Bogoso lost control while negotiating a curve. In the process, the logs fell on the five other vehicles.

A social media user has posted a clip of the development showing people going about their regular activities prior to the incident.

A few seconds later, residents are seen running away from the narrow street behind which follows the truck slamming through vehicles ahead.

Personnel of the MTTD went on the grounds and the road has since been opened to traffic.

The Ghana National Fire Service also assisted to rescue the victims believed to be trapped in the accident vehicles.

Augustus Osei, driver of one of the vehicles involved in the accident said the brake system of the Daf truck failed, which resulted in the accident.
One person confirmed dead in Bogoso accident

“I was coming from Boadie to Bogoso and we had bypassed the roundabout. The Daf truck had already climbed the hill but suddenly all we could see was the truck reversing by itself so I shouted for all my passengers to exit the vehicle.

“Three of us in the vehicle managed to exit but one person could not exit so he died,” he narrated.
