Detectives are investigating the circumstances under which a police officer burst into a hospital and shot dead his lover before turning the gun to himself.
In the shocking incident that occurred in the wee hours of the morning, police constable Benard Sivo stormed Njoro Sub-County hospital and opened fire on his girlfriend Mary Nyambura, who had just been rushed in with a fractured leg.
Earlier, the two are believed to have been involved in an argument that turned ugly after Sivo who was based at Njoro Police Station fractured Nyambura’s right leg. Nyambura then sought treatment at the hospital and told doctors, that her boyfriend had assaulted her.
As the doctors were attending to her, an enraged Sivo stormed the hospital armed with an AK 47 assault rifle and opened fire killing Nyambura on the spot.
The officer who appeared to have gone berserk went back to the police station barely a kilometre away and started shooting in the air frenziedly, before he turned the gun on himself. He died of a single gunshot wound to his head.
