More details are coming to the fore about the suspected Al-Shabaab attack on a Chinese construction site.
Residents living in the vicinity contend that the militants who were armed with rifles kidnapped a resident and ordered him to take them to the site.
The terrified man obliged.
Indiscriminate shots were fired by the attackers at the site, rousing the workers from their sleep and causing them to scamper.
Police were tipped off about the kidnap by one of the residents.
A vicious shootout ensued and the militants were overpowered.
The attack came hardly days after the DusitD2 attack that left 21 people dead.
A worker at the site, speaking on condition of anonymity, says the police officers did a commendable job by responding in good time.
