NAROK ;Grief and shock have engulfed Narok Adventist Primary and Junior Secondary School following the tragic death of a 14-year-old Grade Nine pupil, who was found dead under unclear circumstances on Saturday night.

According to a police report, the young boy was discovered in his bed by fellow students, bleeding heavily from a deep cut on his neck.

The children immediately alerted a school matron, who rushed the boy to Narok Referral Hospital. Tragically, he succumbed to his injuries while undergoing treatment.

The shocking incident has ignited outrage in the surrounding community. Enraged residents stormed the school compound, setting one dormitory ablaze before police officers arrived to contain the situation and prevent further destruction.

The community is in disbelief over the death of the popular student, who was described by neighbors and friends as a “lively, humble, and obedient child.”
