One of the deceased persons from last Saturday’s gas explosion at Atomic junction in Accra has been identified as a videographer from Net 2 television.

Mohammed, who was attached to the presidency was the one who reportedly fell from the overpass to the ground and died on the spot, Graphic Online has gathered.

He was said to be filming the incident from the overpass with a miniature camera but the second explosion caused him to fall from the top to the ground.
Out of the seven deceased persons from the incident, two reportedly died at the scene whilst the rest died at the hospital reports Graphic Online's Jasmine Arku.

Meanwhile the police have also arrested three people who tried to steal in the midst of the chaos.

One of the arrested persons is being held at the Legon police station whilst the other two are at Madina.

One was said to have broken into a shop and stole a gas cylinder and provisions.

He subsequently sold the items to a woman who owns a shop. The woman was also arrested and later granted bail.
