Message: [QUOTE="Munyaradzi Mafaro, post: 76339, member: 636"] A 21-year-old unemployed guy is heading to trial later this month after allegedly shanking a firefighter with a screwdriver because water from the hose got him wet while crews were putting out a house fire at Adjiriganor. Sampson Azumah supposedly had the tool hidden in his waist bag, stabbed the fire officer in the arm, and then bounced before getting arrested a few days later. The firefighter was wrapping up equipment after dealing with the blaze when Azumah went off about getting splashed and attacked him. Bystanders were already throwing rocks at the crew during the whole thing. Azumah pleaded not guilty to causing harm, and the court told someone to explain the witness statements to him since he does not have a lawyer. Fire service leadership said they are staying on this case hard because backing off would let people think they can mess with firefighters without consequences. [/QUOTE]
