The Divisional Crime Officer for Assin Fosu, DSP John Coffie, who confirmed the incident to Citi News, said the Police were informed about the incident around 8:30pm on Thursday.
“We had a call that somebody had killed his mother, father, sister and nephew near Assin Akrofuom. We went to the scene and we found an elderly man who had been beheaded and then a young lady who had also been butchered just by her father.
“When we entered the main house too, we found out that the landlord’s head was almost off, his two hands were chopped off. The last person who our investigation revealed to be the landlord’s son, six year old, was lying there helpless but the suspect bolted,” he added.
He said the 35-year old suspect was killed by residents who arrested him from his hideout in a nearby village, as he attempted to escape.
