COPS RECOVER TOKAREV PISTOL IN DANDORA

Police Officers from Dandora police station have recovered a Tokarev pistol from a three-man gang that has been terrorising innocent members of the public in Dandora and its environs.

While on patrol the officers encountered a gang of three young men actively robbing members of the public along Councillor Opundo Road.

Upon being challenged to surrender, one of the suspects drew a firearm and started firing at the officers, prompting a decisive response.

One suspect, was fatally injured, while his two accomplices escaped on foot towards the Maili Saba area.

A search conducted on the fatally injured suspect led to the recovery of a Tokarev pistol loaded with two live rounds of 9mm ammunition, a military knife and two mobile phones.

The scene has been processed, and the body has been moved to the Nairobi City Mortuary pending identification and post-mortem examination.

About

The establishment, development and growth of Criminal Investigations Department can be traced to the evolvement of the Kenya Police to which it remains one of the key formations. The first police officers were recruited in 1887 by the Imperial British East Africa Company, I.B.E.A. to provide security for stores in Mombasa. It was from these humble beginnings that the Kenya Police was born.
