Following a conflict with the police in Tamale, in the Northern Region, two individuals in Lamashegu were allegedly shot.
This comes after a young man was apprehended while seeking safety at the community's palace.
The commotion is said to have started when the young man ran into the palace of Lamashe-Naa to avoid being arrested by security agents.
An eyewitness told JoyNews that the young man was being pursued for driving an illegal car.
However, when he ran into the palace, he was supposedly shot by the police, resulting in a riot. According to the youth, the act was disrespectful to the traditional authority, hence their agitations.
