Africa-Press – Kenya. <\/strong><\/span>Three suspected robbers were on Friday morning, October 29, neutralised by police officers during a shoot-out along the Mwiki -Githurai 45 road in Nairobi County.<\/p>\n

A police report as detailed on OB Number 4\/29\/10\/2021 at Kasarani Police Station, indicated that one of the suspects managed to escape with gunshot wounds.<\/p>\n

The four are alleged to have stolen a private vehicle in Kayole, Nairobi County, on Thursday night, October 28.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe owner was contacted, and he confirmed that the vehicle was missing from where he had parked it on Thursday night,\u201d reads an excerpt from the report.<\/p>\n

Events began unfolding at around 3am when the suspects were asked to halt their vehicle on the Mwiki – Githurai Road, but defied the orders.<\/p>\n

Alarmed, police officers went after them and a subsequent exchange of gunfire followed. Officers recovered a homemade pistol but did not find any identification documents.<\/p>\n

The bodies of the trio were moved to the City Mortuary.<\/p>\n

Ruiru Sub County Directorate of Criminal Investigations Officer (DCIO), Justus Ombati, stated that investigations into the matter had been launched.<\/p>\n

The incident came just hours after law enforcement officers from Homa Bay County shot at a driver who evaded multiple roadblocks.<\/p>\n

The officers believed that the motorist was smuggling goods from the neighbouring country of Uganda.<\/p>\n

The driver was able to vanish into a thicket and a man hunt has been launched.<\/p>\n

He added that officers were looking for one of the suspects who was still at large.<\/p>\n
