The 23-year-old pleaded guilty to the robbery charge, while two other charges were dropped. The incident occurred on September 29, 2026, when Regina Oparebea, a caterer employed by Annich Creation at Keep-Fit, Dansoman, heard an unusual noise on the porch where catering equipment was stored. Upon investigation, she found Agyemang attempting to take a gas cylinder.

Oparebea raised an alarm, leading to Agyemang's arrest at Prof. Acheampong Street, Keep-Fit, Dansoman. He later admitted to the offense in a police statement and was sentenced to 10 years for robbery.",
