A General Service Unit (GSU) camp in Kapindasum, Baringo County, has been attacked by bandits.
Police in Baringo confirmed that the incident began at 10 a.m. on Tuesday and lasted more than two hours.
According to preliminary reports, bandits also surrounded Kapindasum Primary school. However, it was unclear whether they had taken any of the occupants hostage.
“At around 10 am, bandits attacked the GSU camp in Kapindasum. There are reports that the incident may have also involved a school. When I talked to the teacher, I was told they were afraid.
“They are reported to have surrounded the school and the gunshots can be heard,” an NTV reporter who spoke with a police boss in the region announced.
The incident comes barely three weeks after bandits fired shots at Kapindasum Primary School as pupils were going to lunch.
The school reopened this year after being closed since 2019 due to incessant attacks.
