A couple in Nakuru robbed Ksh.699K at gunpoint after an ambush moments after withdrawing from a bank.

Joy Chebii and her husband Benson Langat reportedly withdrew Ksh. 699,000 from a bank in the central business district of Nakuru in order to pay for building supplies for their rental properties in Rongai.

After making the withdrawal, according to Chebii,  they went to a nearby eatery and took their lunch before hiking a matatu towards home where they alighted at Sobea junction and then took a boda boda.

“We had just gone some distance when a Landcruiser Prado overtook us and blocked us before gun-toting men came out and ordered us to surrender the money or they shoot us, they took my handbag and whisked away my husband,” she narrated.

Langat said he was ordered not to identify anybody in the vehicle as the thieves took all the money and left him only with Ksh.2,000 that was in a separate pocket before he was dumped on the roadside while covered with a sack.

The couple reported the matter to the Menengai police station.

Rongai OCPD Wilberforce Sicharani advised members of the public to avoid carrying large sums of money in bulk or using bags.
