UGENYA: Police officers intervened to rescue three individuals who faced mob justice after allegedly being caught stealing from a shop in Lifunga, Doho West sub-location.

Upon arrival at the scene, law enforcement officials discovered that a shop owned by Fredrick Odhiambo had been unlawfully entered through a breached wall.

Brian Odhiambo Omondi, aged 26, was identified as the perpetrator, having gained entry by creating a hole in the wall.
