DCI Ruai police nabbed David Okoth for being in possession of 7.62mm ammunition recovered in a silver Mitsubishi Lancer.

The saloon automobile had been left unattended on the Eastern Bypass opposite Be Energy Petrol Station when occupants of an unidentified white vehicle began shooting at it.

It is believed that the Mitsubishi Lancer had been shot at least twenty times and had its windscreen shattered.

“Some of the fired bullets exited through the vehicle’s windscreen, which was badly damaged,” police said.

The police also added that “the G –Touring had a bullet hole in the rear windscreen while the Vitz had a bullet hole in the right rear door,” police added.

On the other hand, there were thirty-four cartons of ammunition in the abandoned vehicle, each carrying sixty 7.62mm bullets.

However, Okoth is set to be arraigned in court over his charges.
