A 26-year-old lady met her untimely death on Saturday while helping to provide refreshment at her father’s funeral at Suhum in the Eastern region.

The deceased, only identified as Afua, is reported to have been crushed by a car which skidded off the road at the Suhum Fire Service junction.

Afua had joined her family from Prestea to attend her father, Adu Maxwell's funeral who also died through an accident last month.

While serving mourners at the funeral, a speeding saloon car heading to Suhum from Kumasi skidded off the road and veered into the funeral grounds, crushing her in the process.

Her sister also collapsed after the accident but has regained consciousness

The body has since been deposited at the Suhum Government Hospital morgue.

The Suhum Police commander, Supt. Yahaya Muchiraru, has confirmed the incident, according to starrfmonline.
