One man has died after he threw himself into the Indian Ocean at the Likoni Ferry Channel. Confirming the Friday incident, Likoni OCPD Willy Simba said the man aged between 30-35 years, died while undergoing first aid treatment after being rescued by the Kenya Ferry Rescue team. Last month, a man identified by police as Rufus Kamau, jumped off a crowded ferry in the middle of the Likoni Channel after his wife left him. He was however rescued by divers aboard the ferry and treated at a local hospital. The OCPD further cautioned residents against committing suicide, adding that they should seek counseling from religious leaders and family members.
