The Eastern South Regional Police Command has restored calm in Adoagyiri after clashes between youth groups resulted in widespread disturbances. The clashes, which involved about 300 youth, led to roadblocks, tyre burning, and vandalism of shops and vehicles.
A reinforcement team from the National Police Headquarters and the National Formed Police Unit was deployed to the area and successfully brought the situation under control. According to police investigations, the disturbances were sparked by a reprisal attack following a shooting incident on May 20, 2025, which resulted in one death and several injuries.
The police are currently working to arrest those involved in the clashes and bring them to justice. The community has been urged to remain calm as the police continue to ensure law and order in Adoagyiri and surrounding areas.
