Several people feared dead in Narok-Mai Mahiu road crash

    At least seven people have been killed in two separate road accidents in Narok. 

    One accident occurred in the Maltauro area near Duka Moja on the Narok-Mai Mahiu road at about 10 am today. 

    The accident occurred when the driver of a lorry descending the Nairagie-Enkare escarpment lost control of the vehicle, colliding with multiple vehicles, including a bus and private cars.

    According to a police report, the fatalities occurred following two separate crashes at the same spot involving six vehicles and a motorcycle.

    The first crash happened when the tyre of a trailer heading towards Mai Mahiu burst resulting in it crashing with a Premio car, a bus and a matatu. Three of the matatu passengers succumbed.

    Shortly after, another trailer from the same direction arrived at the scene at high speed, colliding with a Prado whose two occupants died instantly and one died later at the hospital.

    The trailer also knocked down a motorcycle killing two pillion passengers. All the deceased and the injured have been transported to the Narok County Referral Hospital. The number of injured is yet to be confirmed.
