A 36-year-old man has died in an apparent suicide after damaging his father's car in a traffic accident on the Molo-Keringet Road in Nakuru County.
Bethwel Kiptoo reportedly panicked after crashing his father’s Nissan X-Trail, which suffered significantly. He later fled into a nearby maize field, where he tore his shirt and used the fabric to hang himself from a small cypress tree.
Residents discovered his body and immediately informed the police. Officers from the Keringet Police Station and detectives from the Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI) responded swiftly to the scene to investigate the incident.
According to the authorities, no suicide note was found at the scene. Kiptoo’s body was transported to the Olenguruone Sub-County Mortuary, where it awaits a postmortem examination to establish further details.
