At least three students have been stabbed at the University Of Cape Coast following a clash between some students of the University of Ghana and Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology (KNUST).

A student who was returning from night study is reportedly paralyzed as a result of several stabs he received from his attackers.

An eyewitness account say some residents of Commonwealth Hall of the University of Ghana and Unity Hall of KNUST who had been invited for a programme at Ogua Hall at UCC ended up attacking one another after a misunderstanding.

The true cause of the violence is yet to be established, but the incident became intense after some residents of ATL Hall also joined the skirmishes.

Several properties belonging to Ogua Hall are reportedly destroyed. The Hall Bus and Vehicles belonging to some lecturers were also vandalized.

A contingent of police and military personal have been dispatched to campus to stop any possible reprisal attack and to maintain peace.
