Part of the multibillion-shillings Dongo Kundu bypass was vandalised after an accident involving a truck carrying soil near Port of Mombasa on Wednesday. Changamwe police boss Peter Omanwa said the driver of the truck was heading to Nairobi before he lost control of the vehicle during the 6am incident. The truck hit the pillars of a tunnel along the bypass causing part of the roof to tumble down.
