Woman Kills 2 Children With Poison




The Tema Newtown Community was thrown into a state of shock Thursday evening following a report that a woman had allegedly 
poisoned her two little children.
Information gathered by DGN Online indicates that the woman has been arrested and assisting police with the investigation.


The children about a 3-year-old boy and about a year-old girl were allegedly poisoned by their mother in her room over a claim of hardship.
Confirming the arrest, ACP Paul Kissi Frimpong, Crime Officer of the Tema Regional Police Command said that his outfit had information about a 
woman killing her children.
Immediately personnel were dispatched to the scene and found the woman in her mother’s house.

According to him, a search led to the room of the woman where two little children were found motionless on the bed.
“Upon interrogating the woman, she said the children were not well and she sent them to the health facility and was given some drugs.
She returned and gave the drug to the children who slept and since yesterday night the children did not wake up again,” the Crime Officer narrated.
He indicated that some drugs have been found in the room and police have taken custody of them to ascertain the nature of the medicines.
However, information gathered by DGN Online indicates that the woman has been threatening that she will one day poison the children because their 
father had abandoned them and she was struggling to cater to them.

Coronavirus: 'The worst bit is the uncontrollable coughing'

"The worst bit is the uncontrollable coughing," says Andrew O'Dwyer, who is recovering after being infected with the new coronavirus following a skiing trip to Italy in late February. "I've had worse flu, without a doubt - but I wouldn't want to catch it again," he says during his self-isolation at home in south-west London. Despite having type 1 diabetes, Andrew says having the virus "isn't anything to worry about for me personally". He adds that the fever he experienced is "no different to normal flu-type symptoms". "I've not been concerned," he says. The severity of symptoms can vary widely among people. Those who are older and have pre-existing medical conditions (such as asthma, diabetes, heart disease) are more likely to become severely ill and can need hospital treatment. There have been 10 coronavirus-related deaths so far in the UK. Andrew was told the virus wasn't circulating in the resort ...

THE MASCARENE PARROT

The Mascarene parrot was 35 cm (14 in) in length with a large red bill and long, rounded tail feathers. Its legs were red, and it had naked red skin around the eyes and nostrils. It had a black facial mask and partially white tail feathers, but the colouration of the body, wings and head is unclear. Descriptions from life indicate the body and head were ash grey, and the white part of the tail had two dark central feathers. In contrast, descriptions based on stuffed specimens state that the body was brown and the head bluish but do not mention the dark central tail feathers. This may be due to the specimens having changed colour as a result of aging and exposure to light, as well as other forms of damage. Very little is known about the bird in life. The Mascarene parrot was first mentioned in 1674, and live specimens were later brought to Europe, where they lived in captivity . The species was scientifically described in 1771. Only two stuffed specimens exist today, in Paris and Vienn...
