A 30-year-old man was attacked with a cutlass by an enraged coworker because he assisted his fiancée in feeding their child while he was out at work.

The incident occurred in the Central region’s Breman Asikuma Odoben Brakwa neighborhood, according to a UTV report.

It has come to light that the suspect Akwesi Amisah previously warned the victim, who is presently in bad condition, to stay away from his girlfriend because he thought the victim was having an affair with his alleged girlfriend.

On the day of the incident, according to reports, Akwesi Amisah’s girlfriend went to the construction site where he was working to ask for child support money, but she did not meet him there.

After asking for GH 5, the victim gave her GH 20 and asked her to return the change later.

When Akwesi Amisah got back, someone told him in a whisper about his girlfriend’s visit to the location and the cash his coworker had given her to buy food for the kid.

Infuriated by the way things had ended out, the suspect bolted from the scene. He subsequently came back carrying a matchet, with which he fatally injured his co-worker by chopping off his hand.

Presently, the patient is undergoing medical attention at the Our Lady of Good Counsel hospital in the Central region.
