Austrian police are investigating a robbery incident which targeted players of Ghana’s national football team, the Black Stars.
The alleged robbery incident happened ahead of Black Stars’ international friendly scheduled for Friday, March 27, 2026.
Ghana’s Minister for Sports and Recreation, Kofi Adams, has stated that preliminary reports indicate that the CCTV cameras at the hotel where the team was staying were not operational during the incident, a matter now under thorough police review.
The robbers reportedly stole $2,250 in cash along with two Rolex watches belonging to players of the national team.
The Minister says “They are working to carry out the investigation. The initial report we have is that the CCTV was not functioning, and the police are checking when it stopped working and who was responsible for the hotel’s surveillance system at that time.”
