Ghanaians in Baltimore in shock over murder of fellow country man
Ghanaians resident in Baltimore, Maryland in the
United States are in a state of shock over the
gruesome murder of a 37-year-old, Kujoe Bonsafo
Agyei-Kodie by his housemate.

His assailant, 21-year-old Alexander Kinyua, a US
citizen of Kenyan descent, ate his heart and
brain.

Police say Alexander hid the head and hands of the
deceased in a basement laundry room.

Ghanaians in Baltimore are planning to hold a
vigil in memory of the deceased.

According to one Ghanaian resident, Kwamina
Stanhope, the vigil will be held this weekend for
the deceased who is described as a quiet, easy
going, and studious person.

On Tuesday, the killer’s father, called detectives
and reported that another son, Jarrod, found what
he thought were human remains in the house where
they all lived.

Police found the head and hands in the house and
Alexander Kinyua admitted to killing the Ghanaian
by cutting him up with a knife and eating his
heart and part of his brain.
