One of the five children receiving treatment at the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) of the Police Hospital following the Dzorwulu Highway accident has died.
The Public Relations Officer of the Ghana National Fire Service (GNFS), Assistant Divisional Officer I (ADO I) Alex King Nartey, confirmed the development.
He extended condolences to the bereaved family and prayed for the deceased child to rest in peace.
The deceased child was among several victims who sustained injuries in the accident, which occurred along the Dzorwulu stretch of the N1 Highway on Thursday.
The crash happened when a tipper truck reportedly rammed into the rear of a school bus with registration number GT 5717-14, which was carrying 11 children.
Preliminary investigations indicate that the children, aged between three and 10 years, were travelling from Ashaiman to Accra in the Mercedes-Benz Sprinter bus when the accident occurred.
