Two police officers have lost their lives following a tragic shooting incident at Ng'iya Police Post in Siaya County over an alleged disagreement. According to a report from Gem Yala Sub-County Police Commander Charles Wafula, the incident occurred at around 6am when Constable Martin Mwendwa reportedly shot and killed his superior, Corporal Chesise, who was the officer in charge of the station.
He revealed that the officer armed himself with a G3 rifle, entered the corporal's residence, and opened fire, fatally wounding him in the chest and arms.
Reports suggest that after committing the heinous act, he soon launched an escape strategy towards Ng'iya Girls' High School.
However, the officer's attempt to flee was cut short after he was intercepted and fatally shot by fellow officers during the confrontation.
