As Kenyans continue to voice their concerns over the increasing wave of abductions, some detectives from the Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI) found themselves in a tight spot in Kirinyaga County.
The officers who had reportedly gone on operational duty to apprehend a suspect in Kiamanyeki, Mwea faced a mob baying for their blood.
According to the locals, the detectives failed to identify themselves, and thus to them, they turned out as potential abductors.
The crowd then made attempts to lynch the officers.
