The Police at Akwatia in the Eastern Region have detained a 36-year-old man over the possession of three guns during a snap check at Staff Village, Boadua in the region.
Stephen Nkansah, a mourner, was nabbed during a search on his Toyota Tundra Pickup, which was heading from Asamankese to Boadua with five other mourners on board.
Two of the three guns retrieved from the vehicle are a Pardus pump action and a Hulglu pump action gun.

According to him, they were on their way to a funeral at Akyim Tayiman.
