Thursday, August 28, 2025 - Police officers in Kakamega County intercepted a motorcycle transporting 25kg of Cannabis Sativa during a dramatic roadblock operation.
The operation was mounted by officers from Matungu Police Station,
following an alert from their counterparts at Koyonzo Police Station.
According to reports, the suspect was flagged down at the
roadblock but defied the order to stop, speeding past officers and running over
a spike barrier.
His motorcycle tyre was punctured, forcing him to abandon
the motorbike a few metres away before escaping on foot.
Upon inspection, officers discovered 25kg of Cannabis Sativa
concealed on the motorcycle.
Both the drugs and the motorcycle were seized and have been
impounded pending further police action.
A manhunt for the suspect has since been launched.
In a statement, the National Police Service (NPS) commended the officers for their swift response and dedication, noting that the fight against drugs and illicit substances remains a top priority in safeguarding communities.
