Constable Dapaah, affectionately referred to as 'Toner' by his colleagues, was reportedly on a prolonged phone call with his girlfriend when he was fatally struck.
Eyewitnesses noted that the young officer remained calm despite the worsening rain, until a sudden lightning strike took him down instantly. Regrettably, attempts to resuscitate him were unsuccessful.
