A video chronicling how a police officer was gunned down in broad daylight at Lapaz in Accra has emerged.

Two armed young men could be seen wielding a gun on a motorbike on the N1 (George Walker Bush) Highway shooting at the police man on a motorbike while another officer who was initially shot could be seen bolting when the men tried cocking the gun again to shoot.

The amateur video shot by a passenger in a commercial vehicle showed passersby looking on helpless until the two assailants left the scene with their motorbike.

Watch how the entire incident ensued:
