A suspected thug was on Friday night shot dead in a botched robbery in Githurai 44 area . Police said the yet-to-be-identified miscreant had laid an ambush for a man who had just stopped at his apartment at Githurai 44 and was headed to his house for the night. No sooner had the man stopped his vehicle and alighted to open the gate than the thug sprung from a row of dark structures opposite the gate training his firearm at the hapless man’s jugular. Police said a Czeska pistol loaded with four rounds of 9mm calibre was recovered following the chase. The body of the suspect is lying at the City morgue pending identification.
