It is still a mystery how an 18-year-old girl escaped a killer bullet after her spurned lover turned the gun on her.
The Sunday incident has seen the girl recuperation at Naivasha sub-county hospital.
According to witnesses, the incident took place in Naivasha when a spurned lover – who is an Administration Police – sprayed the 18-year-old girl with bullets.
“He shot at her 19 times and three bullets injured her thighs badly. The officer appeared drunk,” Esther Miring’u said.
Residents said that after screams, the officer ran away. Residents rushed the teenager to the hospital.
Area police boss Samuel Waweru said the officer went to his cubicle and pulled the trigger on himself.
“It seems the officer thought that his alleged lover was dead and then turned the gun on himself,” Waweru said.
