A 35-year-old man was lynched by an irate mob in Mariani location, Tharaka-Nithi County after he allegedly stole a chicken from his neighbour. Area OCPD Kizito Mutulo said the residents descended on the deceased, identified as Mutwiri Magiri, with crude weapons.
Mr Mutulo, however, cautioned residents against taking the law into their hands, calling on them to instead report such incidences to the police to take appropriate action. Police took the body to Chuka District Hospital mortuary.
