In a bizarre and violent incident that has left the community stunned, three individuals sustained arrow wounds during a failed break-in at a local Member of Parliament’s office.
The victims, all struck in their limbs or arms, were rushed to Kisii Teaching and Referral Hospital (KTRH) for treatment.
Scene of the Attack.
The attempted intrusion occurred late last night, when suspects armed with bows and arrows tried to force entry into the MP’s office. Witnesses report hearing multiple sharp twangs followed by shouts, as the suspects fired arrows indiscriminately inside the offices.
The motive remains unclear, though local authorities are investigating whether it was a politically driven operation or a criminal heist.
Casualties and Medical Response.
Hospital sources confirmed that all three victims are currently receiving care at KTRH. The injuries, while serious, are not life-threatening. Front-line medics say the arrows lodged in muscle tissue, and the patients are expected to recover fully following surgery and rehabilitation.
Police Launch Full Inquiry.
The Kisii Police Command has launched a comprehensive investigation into the incident. Officers have cordoned off the MP’s office complex, preserving evidence and collecting eyewitness statements. “We are treating this with utmost seriousness,” said a senior police official. “Our objective is to trace the attackers and establish their identity and motives.”
Community on Edge.
Residents in the vicinity of the MP’s office say the attack has sent shockwaves across the constituency. “We’ve seen break-ins before, but never like this—bows and arrows, in this day and age,” one witness said.
There is growing concern that politically motivated violence may be escalating in the region, with this event acting as a troubling indicator.
Broader Implications.
Security analysts say the incident will likely prompt increased protection measures at county and national levels for political offices. Public access to elected leaders may be significantly reduced, while law enforcement ramps up preventive patrols.
Intelligence units will also be reviewing whether this is linked to broader unrest, including recent Saba Saba demonstrations that shook counties across Kenya.
