A brawl between two security officers led to the untimely death of a hardworking butcher, Charles Karugu.
The tussle over a woman between a police officer and a KDF (Kenya Defence Force) officer began on Sunday afternoon after the rogue police guy received information that they were sharing a woman.
This led the police officer attached to the Administration Police department to go away and come back with a gun.
The butchery attendant was shot dead as he tried to protect the KDF officer from the police officer.
“When he came back, he had a gun. The KDF guy was still at the scene speaking to some people. When the soldier realised that the officer had a gun and that he had cocked it, he ran into the butchery to seek refuge,” the owner of the butchery told Daily Nation
The butcher was reportedly shot while closing the door to protect the KDF officer who was already inside the shop.
Karungu sustained injuries in his arm and chest and was left bleeding on the bench. He was declared dead when an ambulance arrived.
“The medics took him into the ambulance and tried to help him but he was declared dead shortly after, so his body was taken to the morgue,” Njau added
