The machete-wielding man
DRAMA UNFOLDED at Adum, the Central Business District (CBD) of Kumasi in the Ashanti Region, as a man was seen being chased with a machete by another man, right in the full glare of the public.
The weird spectacle, which was captured on video, started when a man in red funeral cloth, who was wielding a machete, angrily approached the rival in charge of a V8 land cruiser vehicle.
The two men were initially exchanging words when suddenly, the man who was in charge of the plush-looking V8 vehicle jumped out of the car and run for his life, leaving behind his luxurious vehicle.
The man in funeral cloth was then seen racing after him, only to return to where the car was parked few minutes later, brandishing a sharp-looking machete, and issuing wild threats in public.
Bonking AllegationsÂ
People at the scene were initially baffled, regarding what may have motivated the man in funeral cloth to chase the other man with a machete in public, and creating a scene in the process.
It was later gathered that the man in the funeral cloth was accusing the one in charge of the V8 vehicle of bonking his wife, and wanted to retaliate.
Some people were heard hurling insults at the obviously broken-hearted man, whom they lambasted for trying to take the law into his hands to assault someone over a woman.
Police InterventionÂ
The dramatic incident attracted scores of curious people to the scene, some of whom were seen restraining the man in funeral cloth from attacking the alleged ‘sexy’ man with the machete.
In the course of the drama, some uniformed policemen rushed to the scene and they quickly apprehended and handcuffed the machete-wielding man, and marched him to the police station.
The exact day and time of the incident, which is now all over social media, was not known.
