This student was assaulted over allegations of stealing a phone
Students of Christian Methodist Senior High School (Chrimeto) in Weija clashed after one of their peers was mobbed over allegations of stealing a mobile phone.
A video of the incident, shared by Accra-based UTV on February 28, 2025, shows the accused student running into a shop while being chased by his colleagues.
Some students could be seen blocking others from entering the shop to continue attacking the alleged thief.
A man rushed out of the shop and began pushing away the students gathered at the entrance, which led to a physical altercation.
With the help of some onlookers, the man managed to disperse the students, who fled upon realizing that many community members were approaching the scene.
Another part of the video shows students throwing objects at each other within the school premises.
Some students outside the school were seen hurling objects at those inside, who retaliated in kind.
Those outside could be heard taunting their peers inside, saying, “You are going to sleep in the school today.”
The footage also captures the accused student, who had been severely beaten, sitting inside the shop.
His face was swollen, and he had bloodstains all over him. In the video, he can be heard insisting on his innocence while some people in the shop attempt to calm him down.
