Kakamega: Pupil killed by loaded sugarcane truck
Reports indicate that the young boy, a pupil at St. Monica primary school in the area, was crushed to death by a tractor loaded with sugarcane.
Likuyani area Chief Bornventure Lugado confirmed the incident.
He said that: “The little boy was in the company of other boys when he was crushed to death by the tractor. The driver of the tractor escaped, and is currently being sought.”
It is, however, not yet clear the circumstances under which the young boy was crushed.
