Business came to a stand still for close to two hours as buyers, sellers and animals ran for their safety.
"I saw people from the lower side of the market running and I ran too thinking it was an attack," said an eye witness Joseph Mutuli
The two who got serious injuries were taken to Gilgil hospital.
It was the second attack within a month.
