Fake Fire Officer Arrested – My News Ghana

In the Central Region of Ghana, a man who appears to be in his late twenties and wearing a Fire Service uniform was apprehended and severely beaten for allegedly stealing palm oil and palm kernel.

The suspect was reportedly caught with over ten gallons of the stolen goods from a palm oil mill in Abeadze Towoboase during the early hours of Wednesday, March 15, 2023.

Upon interrogation, the suspect was unable to produce an identity card or state which Fire station he works at, leading residents to believe he may be a fake Fire Service officer. The locals watched as the suspect stole the palm oil, but he was caught just as he was leaving the scene and subsequently beaten while pleading for forgiveness.

The suspect, who is not known in the area, was taken to the Mankessim Divisional Police Station in Jedu for further investigation.
