Five people including a police officer have been injured in violent clashes between Hausas and Dagombas at the Agbogbloshie market.

The Hausas and Dagombas clashed Tuesday after a 2-year-old Dagomba girl defecated in an area occupied by the Hausas.

According to Starr FM's Osei Amankwah who was at the scene, the Hausas spanked the little girl which angered the Dagombas prompting them to retaliate.

Several houses have been torched in the violence that broke out Tuesday morning.

Police have beefed up security in the area after they managed to bring the situation under control.

This is the third time Hausas and Dagombas have clashed in the area.

No death has been recorded yet.
