The Tema Regional Police Command has arrested four students of Ada Senior High Technical School following the circulation of a disturbing viral video allegedly showing one of the students wielding a cutlass and threatening colleagues on campus.
According to a police press release issued on May 22, 2026, the incident came to the attention of the police at about 12:10 a.m. after the video began circulating widely on social media platforms, sparking public concern over safety and discipline within secondary schools.
Police said a night patrol team was immediately dispatched to the school after authorities received information about the footage.
The operation subsequently led to the arrest of four students identified as Raymond Gyamfi, 18; Oscar Amemoair, 18; Odartey Wilson, 18; and one juvenile whose identity has been withheld in accordance with child protection laws.
The suspects are currently in police custody assisting investigators with inquiries into the incident.
The disturbing footage, which rapidly spread online, reportedly showed one of the students holding a cutlass while issuing threats during what authorities believe may have been a confrontation among students.
Meanwhile, the Tema Regional Police Command says investigations into the matter are ongoing and further updates will be provided in due course.
