An 11-year-old boy died after being struck in the stomach with a stone while playing with his sibling in Mutuati, Igembe North, Meru County. The family and police reported that the incident occurred on August 30 while the boys were tending to their cattle. The assailant, also an 11-year-old, claimed it was an accident while they were playing.

After being hit, the boy complained of stomach pain and was taken to Kiegu Nursing Home on September 1. He was subsequently referred to Maua Hospital, but his parents, citing financial constraints, returned home instead. The boy died the following day due to the injuries. Police have moved the body to the mortuary for an autopsy and are investigating the incident, including questioning the young assailant.

In Belgut, Kericho County, police are investigating the death of 45-year-old Eric Kipngetich Ngeno. His body was discovered in his bed on September 2 in a servant quarter where he lived alone. The cause of death is currently unknown, and the body has been taken to the mortuary for an autopsy and further investigation.

In Matungu, Kakamega County, a 21-year-old man named Emmanuel Malinya died from injuries sustained in a fight with his maternal uncle. The altercation, which occurred on September 2, led to his death.

After the fight, Emmanuel Malinya did not seek medical attention and went to bed, where he later died. His body has been moved to the mortuary for an autopsy and further investigation. Police are actively searching for the individual involved in the altercation.

In Lower Kakrao sub-location, Migori County, a man’s body was discovered floating in Nyasare stream on September 2. The man, who is middle-aged and unidentified, was found with multiple fresh injuries. The body has been taken to Migori County Referral Hospital Mortuary for identification and postmortem examination. Police are investigating the suspected mob lynching and are seeking to apprehend those responsible. They urge the public to avoid mob justice and to hand over suspects to authorities for legal processing and potential prosecution.
