A Nissan Juke registered under the license plate KDG 265E is said to have struck a motorcycle on its way to Kitengela on Thursday night at approximately 7:30 p.m., injuring a passenger riding in the passenger seat.

"The driver, Conex Kemunto Onengo, then sped off towards Namanga general direction through the Arusha service lane and hit pedestrian Bernard Mutinda, aged 32 years, injuring him on the left leg below the knee and his son Hashley Baraka aged 4 years who complains of chest pains," a police report documenting the incident reads in part. 

"She drove towards the Old Namanga Road and hit an unknown motorcycle, which the rider escaped, injuring the pillion passenger Damaris Wandia aged 28 yrs, who is expectant, on the left leg and bruises on both hands."


Before coming across boisterous boda boda operators at Enkare, who blockaded the road and encircled her car, Kemunto is said to have wounded another pedestrian.

"She then struck Joseph Mutiso Wambua, a pedestrian, causing injuries to his right leg and shoulder. The police report states that after leaving the Shell Petrol Station in Enkare via Tarmac Road, the car was obstructed by boisterous Boda Boda motorcyclists.  

"The car had significant stone damage and had to be transported to the police station for examination. Christopher Mutua, the co-driver, was struck and suffered bruising on his forehead, two broken front upper teeth, and damage to his upper lip."

The police are holding the car's driver at the moment.
