Monday, November 24,
2025 - A victim of a violent roadside robbery appealed to the public and
security agencies for heightened vigilance after being ambushed by armed thugs
travelling in an unidentified vehicle.
The gang, reportedly carrying a machete and what appeared to
be a Ceska pistol, attacked and robbed him of his Tecno Phantom Z smartphone
valued at approximately Ksh 140,000.
According to the victim, the incident occurred along a
roadside stretch where the vehicle pulled up abruptly before the attackers
descended on him.
“They had a machete and a Ceska-like pistol. They took my
phone and assaulted me. They did not give me any chance to defend myself,” he
recalled, describing the terrifying encounter.
The victim sustained minor injuries during the attack but
managed to escape further harm.
He has since reported the matter to authorities and is
urging members of the public to prioritise their safety and avoid confronting
the suspects if spotted.
“I’m asking anyone who may come across this vehicle or recognise the pattern of these attacks to report immediately to the DCI or the nearest police station. These individuals are dangerous and should only be handled by trained law enforcement officers,” he added.
