Cape Coast: Driver who assaulted woman during 6th March night ‘escapade’ arrested

A 42-year-old driver who allegedly assaulted a woman during a night escapade on 6th March, in Cape Coast in the Central Region, has been arrested by the police.

Identified by the police as Godwin Bayor alias Yaw, he was captured in a video in an argument with the woman.

The man on his part explained that he was taking her to a place and there was a misunderstanding and he asked her to disembark from the vehicle.

The woman rather insisted that she should be taken back to where he picked her up (Hutchland).

This degenerated into an alleged assault. The woman was spotted in the video with a bruised face. (Video attached below)
