Kasabuni pub revellers robbed at gunpoint by thugs masquerading as unsound mind vagabonds

The Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI) detectives are looking for three suspects who raided a drinking joint at Ruaraka’s Kasabuni area in Nairobi County and ordered all revelers to lie down before stealing from them and fleeing.

The three thugs who were armed with a firearm initially posed as vagabonds of unsound mind carrying sacks on their backs, before entering Reke Marie Pub to seek for 'alms'.

"All this while, the revelers who were unperturbed by the trio’s presence continued corroding their esophageal glands with impunity as they downed cold swallows, until one of the presumed mad men whipped out a riffle from his sack and ordered everyone to lie down!" Reports the DCI.

The thugs then ordered everyone at the club to lie down. The thugs then had a field day ransacking their pockets for mobile phones, cash and other valuables. 

To further scare the revellers not to raise alarm, the thugs fired two bullets in the air, attracting the attention of police officers on patrol, who immediately rushed to the scene. However, by the time of their arrival the thugs had vanished into darkness.

Two empty cartridges of 7.62mm were collected at the scene. Meanwhile, police are pursuing leads into the whereabouts of the thugs masquerading as beggars. The spent cartridges have since been sent to the DCI National Forensic Laboratory for scientific analysis by ballistic experts.
