Narrating the incident to Adom News an eye witness, Kwesi Adu, said the deceased was helping a schoolgirl to cross the road "but instead of him parking the bicycle (he was riding) and helping the girl, he was still on the bicycle while the girl walked beside him and was unfortunately killed by a passenger bus which was approaching”.

No one else was injured, but the passengers in the sprinter bus were said to be in shock.

Superintendent Williams Asante, MTTD Commander at the Airport Police Station who confirmed the death of the man said the body has been sent to the Police Hospital morgue.

He said the driver reported himself at the station and has been charged on a provisional charge of negligent driving.
