As reported by the Ghana Football Association (GFA), the incident occurred along the Goaso–Bibiani road near Ahyiresu in the Ahafo Region. Suspected armed robbers reportedly blocked the team’s vehicle and opened fire, prompting players and officials to abandon the bus and seek safety in the nearby bushes.
