One suspect who was in a viral robbery incident that was captured on cctv along Ngong Rd is in police custody following a sting operation by detectives.
In the video footage that has made rounds on social media for several days, a robber was captured violently robbing a foreigner of her sling bag and escaping on a motorcycle as a second pillion passenger.
Swinging into action, the DCI says it deployed a team of detectives to pursue what was evidently a well coordinated gang that targeted pedestrians on the walk ways.
Intelligence-led surveillance saw the arrest of Samuel Ndungo Waweru, a member of the gang believed to have established its base around MOGAS Petrol Station along Jogoo Rd.
His accomplices, DCI says, have since been identified and put on police radar as their manhunt continues.
