0 A 20-year-old man, Kwadwo Bright, has been stabbed to death following an alleged fight over a plastic chair at Ashanti New Town in Kumasi.
Eyewitnesses say the incident occurred in the early hours of Thursday, September 4, 2025, after a quarrel between the deceased and a friend, who is suspected to be the attacker, escalated into violence.
The misunderstanding reportedly began at a snooker game centre, where both young men claimed ownership of the chair. Although the dispute was initially resolved, the suspect later confronted Kwadwo and stabbed him in the neck.
Speaking to the media, Georgina Yeboah, mother of the deceased, recounted the tragic moment she heard the news.
“I heard people screaming about a young man being stabbed and rushed to the scene, only to find my son in a critical state. Although the matter was reportedly settled, the suspect later attacked and stabbed Kwadwo in the neck, resulting in his death this morning,” she said.
Kwadwo was rushed to the Komfo Anokye Teaching Hospital, where doctors pronounced him dead.
Police are yet to issue an official statement on the incident, while investigations are underway to apprehend the suspect.
