It was fireworks as as two robbery with violence suspects are arrested and a glock pistol loaded with 7 rounds of 9mm calibre recovered, in a raid at an apartment in Yamumbi, Eldoret, Uasin-Gishu county; DCI reports.
The two Kevin Mwangi and Bonface Biwott, were reportedly ejected out of their rented house after defying orders to open the door during the early morning raid by detectives based at DCI Usin-Gishu, backed up by their counterparts from the elite Crime Research & Intelligence Bureau.
“Earlier, the two thugs who were on a motorbike had engaged our men in a hide and seek game that lasted a few hours last night, prompting the sleuths to abandon the chase and lay an ambush on their doorstep, instead.” Said DCI.
Immediately after gaining access into the house, a search was conducted leading to the recovery of the firearm, assorted electronic goods suspected to have been stolen, a toy pistol and a bucket containing canabis sativa.
The suspects believed to be behind the recent robbery incidents reported in Eldoret town and its environs were arrested and are currently in custody assisting police with investigations.
