One person has died after the lorry they were travelling in overturned on Wednesday.
The incident occurred at Daraja Moja area in Kisii town.
Erick Magero, an eye witness, said the lorry driver lost control of the vehicle and veered off the road leading to the accident.
"The driver's assistant died on the spot while the driver sustained serious injuries. The driver lost control due to speeding, veered off the road before he hit a ditch causing the lorry to overturn," said Magero.
"Members of the public rushed to the scene for rescue efforts but unfortunately, the driver's assistant was dead by the time he was rescued as the lorry overturned on the side he was seated," he added.
Confirming the incident, Kisii County Assistant Police Commander Caleb Matoke warned motorists against careless driving.
"Motorists should stop speeding now that the region is receiving heavy rainfall which has made several roads slippery," he said.
The injured driver was taken to the Kisii Teaching and Referral Hospital for treatment.
