Eight thugs
were on Tuesday night shot dead by police at Mukuru kwa Reuben in Nairobi
following a tip off from members of the public.
Industrial Area OCPD Nehemiah Lang’at told Citizen Digital
that the gang was suspected to be behind recent muggings along a notorious
bridge on Falcon Road.
“Police shot three
suspects dead, other gang members escaped to Mukuru slums where they regrouped
and engaged police in a shoot-out. Three others were shot dead during the
shootout while the other two were discovered dead along Ngong River in Mukuru
kwa Reuben slums,” he said.

were gunned down in Nairobi’s Westlands area after a failed robbery at a
bank.
According to the police, two other gangsters escaped while
one pistol was recovered.
