One person is feared dead after a long truck crashed into a billboard at Anloga Junction in Kumasi.
About three others sustained injuries after being trapped under the truck.
The long truck carting agro chemicals failed its break and collided into the billboard.
Sources say the billboard and the vehicle fell in one direction.
Beneath the billboard were some food vendors who sell at the spot at night. It is the second time in two weeks such an incident has been recorded at the spot.
According to eyewitnesses, some customers of the food vendors were seated at the time of the accident.
Vincent Awom who witnessed the accident said “I saw the vehicle when it lost its break so I went ahead of it to raise an alarm. It then veered off the road after ramming into a taxi. Some people were having their supper when the truck rammed into them."
Meanwhile, the Anloga intersection is prone to such accidents.
The area has been a target for all major decongestion exercises in the Kumasi Metropolis.
