An Administration Police officer was on Friday night shot dead in a Ngong pub after an altercation over a woman.

According to the Star, the officer and his colleague fell into a heated argument over a woman called Carol, each claiming to be her lover.

Matters got worse when the AP officer insisted he was Carol's "legal owner", something that prompted the colleague to pull his pistol and shoot twice in the officer's chest.

Ngong OCPD George Seda told media that the culprit was arrested and is in detention as police carry out investigations on the matter. ​

"We have moved the body of the slain officer to City Mortuary for postmortem," he said.
