Africa-Press – South-Sudan. <\/strong><\/span>The US Embassy in Kenya has advised its citizens to be aware of increasing rate of crimes in the streets of Nairobi and conceal expensive jewelries and valuable belongings.<\/p>\n

The embassy issued a security alert on Friday, urging American citizens to keep low profile and avoid displaying wealth and valuables.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere are reports of increased criminal activities in residential areas of Nairobi. Incidents include crimes of opportunity such as purse and phone snatching,\u201d the alert said.<\/p>\n

The embassy added that the Kenyan government is taking measures to place more police in high crime areas.<\/p>\n

\u201cDo not display signs of wealth, such as wearing expensive jewelry or watches, or flashing large sums of money; keep valuables, such as phones, concealed,\u201d it further cautioned.<\/p>\n

The security alert also urged US citizens to always remain calms and avoid resisting the criminals when in such situations.<\/p>\n

\u201cDo not physically resist any robbery attempt and remain calm. Confrontation with these individuals often leads to violence. In traffic, keep your doors locked and windows up.\u201d<\/p>\n
