A driver who on Sunday left his car by the roadside near Kiamutugu Shopping Centre in Kirinyaga County to buy fuel was shocked to find the vehicle in River Nyamindi.
Josephat Muriithi said four people hired him to take them to Gachara Primary School’s football grounds in Gichugu in his Toyota Probox.
Upon reaching Nyamindi bridge near Kiamutugu, he found out he had run out of fuel and parked the car by the roadside.
âAfter I bought the fuel, I was shocked to see my vehicle in River Nyamindi as residents raised alarm thinking somebody was injured,â he said.
Muriithi, who had left the four people inside his car, said he suspects they interfered with it.
âMy customers were nowhere to be found when that happened,â he narrated.
Police said nobody was injured as the four escaped before the vehicle plunged into the river.
