Close Call: Police Vehicles Nearly Hit Crowd at EOCO Headquarters
A near-miss between police vehicles and a crowd gathered outside the Economic and Organized Crime Office (EOCO) headquarters in Accra, Ghana, on May 27, 2025, created a tense situation. The video footage shows police vehicles driving dangerously close to the crowd, causing alarm and anger. "What happened? What happened?" one bystander is heard shouting in the video. The incident occurred at night, with the crowd illuminated by streetlights and the flashing lights of the police vehicles. The close proximity of the vehicles to the crowd is clearly visible, and the bystanders' reactions range from shouting to concern.
