Police officers from the Endebess Police Station intercepted a lorry believed to have been illegally hauling 32 drums of ethanol.
The arrest followed a tip-off regarding a lorry suspected of transporting ethanol.
Acting swiftly, the officers set up an ambush along the Suam-Kitale road, successfully stopping the vehicle.
Upon escorting the truck back to the Endebess Police Station, a search revealed that the ethanol was cleverly concealed beneath 25 bags of maize and 20 bags of animal feed.
The driver, James Muriithi Kamau, 37, and his loader, Amos Mugambi, 27, were taken into custody and are undergoing processing before their appearance in court.
