\u00a0The accident scene<\/strong><\/p>\n

Four schoolchildren were knocked down
\nand killed by a speeding vehicle at Egya No.2, a fishing community near
\nAnomabo on the Cape Coast-Accra highway. <\/p>\n

According to eyewitnesses, one other child who
\nwas also hit by the vehicle was in a critical condition at the Saltpond
\nHospital in the region. <\/p>\n

According to sources, the children were on
\ntheir way home from school on Tuesday afternoon and were knocked down when they
\nwere crossing the road. <\/p>\n

The driver of the Hyundai 4\u00d74 vehicle which
\nkilled the children was later arrested, and is currently in the custody of the
\nSaltpond police.<\/p>\n

Immediately after the unfortunate incident,
\nresidents of the area blocked the Anomabo section of the highway in protest
\nagainst the incessant knockdowns and killings on the road.<\/p>\n

According to them, many requests for speed
\nramps to be constructed on that portion of the road had fallen on deaf ears. <\/p>\n

Some of the residents asserted that last Tuesday\u2019s accident was the second in one week.\u00a0 \u201cSo far, about seven people had been killed on the same stretch within a week,\u201d a resident pointed out.<\/p>\n
