In a dramatic episode, the officers were stoned, forcing officials to send reinforcements.
The squad had apprehended three individuals and recovered 100 rolls of bhang, a shackle, and a set of police uniforms, but they were attacked while they were being brought away.
Witnesses say they were trapped as they walked away, with the suspects stoning them and then fleeing.
Officers fired into the air until they ran out of ammunition. One officer lost his weapon and a communication device in the process.
Nairobi police chief James Mugera said the criminals who escaped after being apprehended are being sought.
Nairobi Women's Hospital treated and discharged the injured police officers. The pistol and the contraption were also found.
