Some witnesses at the scene saw the Naishi Police Station police vehicle hit the mother and the child from behind.
The victim's family stated that the mother and child were visiting a relative at Nakuru Level Five Hospital. They took a Boda Boda, a motorcycle taxi, to reach the bus stop. On their way to the
hospital, they got hit, causing the woman's death on the spot. According to a witness at the scene, the officer appeared drunk and offered assistance after the hit. But instead of choosing a tarmac road, he drove another route without considering the victim's injuries. After he dropped them off at
the hospital, he left without uttering a word, leaving them to struggle with the medical process.
