Teacher shot dead in night raid at a Thika apartment.


A teacher in one of the leading secondary schools in Thika has early this morning succumbed to gunshot injuries after unknown people shot him at his home in ACK Apartments opposite Nampak Kenya Limited, Thika.

According to neighbours, either two or three people with AK-47 rifles raided the premises at around 1am and ordered the night guards to lie down.

It is alleged that the thugs fired at the teacher immediately he opened the door to his house to check what was happening and in the process, shot him in the stomach.

They are said to indiscriminately shoot at anyone who dared open their doors or peep through the window, probably to scare them away.

Some sources say that the teacher might have arrived home some moments before the incident but none could ascertain whether he was the target or just victim of a normal robbery incident.

Another of their neighbours who was being dropped by a car at the time might have interrupted the thugs’ mission. Immediately the cab stopped to drop him, the thugs pounced on the four occupants, robbed them of their phones and money before fleeing the scene on a motorbike.

The neighbours later rushed the victim to Thika Level 5 Hospital where he succumbed to his injuries.

By the time the police arrived, the thugs had already gone.

The body of the deceased is lying at General Kago Road Funeral Home.
