NAIROBI – A Kenyan police officer shot 10 people dead in three bars in a small town northeast of Nairobi before surrendering, a police spokesman said yesterday.
“He went from one bar to another and was shooting indiscriminately. Apparently he was looking for his girlfriend after he left duty,” Charles Owino, a Nairobi-based deputy spokesman in the regular police division, said.
Five men and three women were gunned down first in two bars in the market town of Siakago on Saturday night.
Later, two police officers who were investigating the shootings were killed.
