A 53-year-old man has gruesomely stabbed a 23-year-old Ghanaian man to death in Saskatoon, Canada, for unknown reasons.
According to Maame Pokuah, a Ghanaian resident in Toronto who narrated the incident, the victim, originally from Kumasi-Afranch was simply known as either Joe or Alfred and had only moved to Canada in September 2024.
She explained that the suspect was a friend and co-worker of Alfred, who normally picked him up for work.
Shockingly, during a break at work, the 53-year-old suspect pulled out a knife and attacked Alfred, stabbing him 17 times without any provocation.
Saskatoon Police, in a statement, revealed that the suspect fled the scene before officers arrived but was later arrested a short distance away and has been charged with first-degree murder.
Members of the Major Crime Section and the Forensic Identification Section are continuing to investigate, according to Saskatoon police.
