A group of thieves on Wednesday night raided a police post in Homa Bay county and went away with four guns.

The thieves are said to have accessed the Kipasi Patrol base office through the window and broke the steel box that had the weapons.

Homa Bay County commander Samson Kine said they stole six riffles; three AK47 rifles and three G3 rifles. 

They however dropped two weapons on the way and escaped with the rest.

“We are still pursuing the issue to know how and why it happened that way as part of efforts to get the thieves,” he told the press.

It is believed that the thieves raided the station when the officers were away.

Six officers are deployed at the station.

Kine said they are in pursuit of the suspects.

He asked members of the public to volunteer information that could help in the arrest of those involved.
