A rescue team from the Kpong Fire Station arrived within minutes and used heavy-duty extrication equipment to free him. He was then handed over to the National Ambulance Service and rushed to the Akuse Government Hospital for treatment.
The crash attracted scores of residents and motorists, who gathered at the scene as emergency workers battled to save the victim. Fortunately, no other casualties were reported.
Police have since launched investigations into the cause of the accident, while the damaged truck was later towed away to restore the flow of traffic.
