Vihiga County Commander Hassan Barua said they were attacked with crude weapons by criminals who then broke into the shops they had been guarding. Mr Barua and Kakamega County Commissioner Abdinuzak Jaldesa were among those who went to the scene. Residents who gathered there decried security lapses, noting the market is less than 500 metres from Kilingili Police Station. They also said they were uncertain about the police station supposed to serve them owing to the location of the market.
