The robber who is believed to be in his 40s was attacked and lynched after he and another colleague allegedly shot a mobile money operator, seizing an undisclosed amount of money from him.

The two armed robbers are yet to be named by the Municipal police command.

An eyewitness, Seidu Saikati told Adom News that the robbers who were riding a motorbike tried to escape after the operations but fell off their bike after running into a pothole.

In the process, one of the armed robbers made his way into the bush but the rider was apprehended and lynched by residents.
