3news.com reports that Anthony Mensah attempted to bolt when he saw the police patrol team.

He was found fetching water from his residence but immediately removed his clothes in an attempt to escape arrest.

It was raining so he thought he will be slippery but the police overpowered him.

The police began investigations immediately after Mark Ofori was shot dead at his residence in Fijai in the Sekondi/Takoradi metropolis.

His laptop was taken away by the killers but other personal stuff were left untouched.

His murder happened in the wee hours of Wednesday, October 30.

It followed a similar attack on the residence of the in-law of the Western Region Minister, Kwabena Otchere Darko-Mensah, resulting in the death of the security man at post.
