Detectives have launched an investigation into the death of a 22-year-old college student who died after being thrown from a moving vehicle in Nakuru.

The student has been identified as Eileen Cherotich, a business student at Rift Valley Institute of Science Technology who died while returning home following a night out in Nakuru.

She allegedly argued with her partner on the way home, which pushed her out of the vehicle.
