Six passengers have been reported dead in the ghastly Kwa Majini Bridge accident along the Thika-Garissa Highway.
8 others have been seriously injured and were rushed to Matuu Level 4 hospital. This was confirmed by Machakos Police boss Issa Mohamed.
The accident involved a 14-seater matatu that collided with another vehicle and burst into flames.
Reports indicate that the matatu was carrying a gas cylinder before it collided and went up in flames. This is under investigation.
“It is unfortunate we have lost six passengers. The collision caused a fire which trapped those trying to leave and hampered rescue mission,” the police boss said.
