Polisi waua mshukiwa mmoja, wawajeruhi wawili katika wizi uliozuiliwa Wangari Maathai Road

Polisi wa Nairobi North wameua mshukiwa mmoja wa wizi na kuwajeruhi wawili wengine wakati wa kuzuia wizi uliofanyika kwenye Barabara ya Wangari Maathai Machi 21, 2026. Wafanyabiashara waliripotiwa kuwa na silaha moja ya pisto na zingine za kunyonya. Wengine wawili bado wakitafutwa.

Machi 21, 2026, saa 5:50 jioni, maafisa kutoka Nairobi North Sub-Region walipata taarifa kutoka kwa mwananchi aliyekuwa macho wakati wa doria ya kawaida ya miguu kwenye Jubilee Flyover ya Barabara ya Wangari Maathai. Taarifa hiyo ilisema kuwa wahalifu watatu wenye silaha—moja ikiwa na pisto na wengine wenye silaha za kunyonya—walikuwa wakimudu wananchi katika eneo la Makaburini, kulingana na taarifa ya Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI) iliyotolewa Machi 22. Maafisa waliwafuata wahalifu kimya kimya, ambao walishambulia maafisa kutoka kichaka. Mshambuliaji mkuu aliyekuwa na pisto aliiinua kwa afisa mmoja, na hivyo maafisa wakafungua moto dhidi ya washukiwa. Mmoja alikufa papo hapo, na wawili wengine wakakimbia wakijeruhiwa. Walipokea pisto ya Blow Mini 9, magazini yenye risasi mbili za 9mm, risasi moja katika chumbisho, na risasi mbili za ziada kutoka mfukoni mwa mshukiwa aliyekufa. Maafisa kutoka Starehe na Gigiri Sub-Counties pamoja na wataalamu wa Scenes of Crime walichakata eneo la tukio. Mwili ulisafirishwa City Mortuary kwa utambulisho na uchunguzi wa baada ya kifo. DCI inawafuata wawili waliojeruhiwa. Tukio hili lilitokea saa chache baada ya tukio lingine Meru County ambapo kiongozi wa genge aliuawa.
