Police in Mokowe, Lamu County managed to repulse suspected Al-Shabaab attackers, after they tried to attack Mokowe GSU camp, Monday night.
Sources said no injuries were reported, since the officers were alert.
The attack came few hours following President Uhuru Kenyatta's shoot-to-kill order, of the militants.
While in Lamu, Monday for a Jubilee Party campaign rally, Uhuru expressed disappointment in the manner in which the militants were terrorising residents and killing them, saying they should not be forgiven.
"If they come to shoot, behead and kill innocent people and our police, why spare them? I can't forgive people who kill my people," Uhuru said.
Speaking at Mpeketoni , he noted his government would not be kind to terrorists who finish off innocent civilians.
With Lamu experiencing frequent attacks from the militants who use Boni forest as a hideout, Uhuru affirmed that his government would ensure security in the region.
The latest attack saw a Principal Secretary Mariam El Maawy, abducted. She was however rescued.
