The Assemblyman of the area, Edward Osei said he received a call from one of the residents that someone has been found dead in the river.
According to him, upon reaching the scene, he saw the deceased in the river with a sack, cutlass and bottle of water at the river bank.

The assemblyman said he informed the police and NADMO officials who came in and took the body.
The body has been deposited at the Kyebi Hospital morgue for postmortem and preservation.
