Dimunitive Ghanaian actor, Stephen Atangah, popularly known as Don Little, was reportedly arrested by the police in Accra on Friday after he allegedly knocked down a motorcyclist.
Media reports in the West African country said the actor knocked down the rider with his car while driving in the Kasoa Area A, with videos showing him protesting against his incarceration while in police custody.
According to a report by an online platform, the actor was transporting a friend to the hospital when the incident happened.
“According to Don Little his friend called him that one of their friends wanted to take his life so he should intervene,” the platform said.
“On the way to the hospital, he met some motor riders so he blew the horn for them to give him way but they refused.
“In a bid to manoeuvre, he knocked down one of the motor riders with his mirror.
“Unfortunately, there was an officer at the scene. The officer claimed that Don Little slapped him twice but the actor denied the claims. He was taken to the Kasoa police station”, it added.
The video also showed Don Little behind bars at the police station and interacting with some of the officers.
“He was lamenting why he had been arrested and the person he was involved in an accident had been left to go home,” the online platform narrated further.
“Some of the police officers were also heard wondering why a person with the stature of Don Little would be allowed to drive in Ghana.”
