A Boda Boda rider in Bomet town is on the run after hundreds of bees swarmed over a bike he had parked in a petrol station.
Witnesses who spoke to Citizen say shortly after he excused himself to dine at one of the eating spots adjacent to the fuel station, a swarm of bees ‘invaded the bike’
According to Musa Omar, the Bomet Central Sub-county Police Chief, the rider emerged from the hotel to find his bike surrounded by inquisitive bystanders.
Mr.Omar went on to say that the motorcyclist may have sensed danger and decided to run, causing the proprietor of the filling station to call the police.
Bees have been used by suspected witch doctors to go after thieves. As to whether this was their doing, only the ‘elders’ can tell.
