3 students stabbed following Vandals, Conti, ATL clashes at UCC
At least three students were stabbed Friday at the
University of Cape Coast (UCC) following a clash
between some students of the University of Ghana
and Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and
Technology (KNUST).

A UCC student who was returning from night studies
is reportedly paralysed as a result of several
stabs he received from his attackers.

An eye witness narrated that some residents of
Commonwealth Hall and Unity Hall who had been
invited for a programme at Oguaa Hall ended up
attacking one another after a misunderstanding.

Although, he does not know the true cause of the
misunderstanding, the witness said the incident
became intense after some residents of ATL hall
also joined the skirmishes.
Several properties worth thousands of cedis
belonging to Oguaa hall have been destroyed, the
eye witness said.

The hall's bus and vehicles belonging to some
lecturers were all vandalised.
Meanwhile, a contingent of police and military
personnel have been dispatched to the campus to
stop any possible reprisal and to maintain peace.
