Eight persons were killed instantly when their matatu collided with a lorry on the Webuye-Eldoret highway early on Sunday.
The disaster that occurred in the Musembe area resulted in no survivors.
Perris Kimani, the Western Regional Police Commander, confirmed the occurrence.
“It’s as if the driver became terrified when he saw a stationary vehicle and tried to dodge, but the lorry ripped off the roof and the metals beheaded all the occupants,” Kimani explained.
At the time of the disaster, the matatu, which was travelling from Webuye, was claimed to have had eight passengers on board.
The victims’ bodies were taken to the Webuye sub-county hospital mortuary for postmortem procedures.
