On a fateful Friday night, July 2, 2021, a love triangle shoot-out erupted at Quivers Lounge on Thika Road, leaving two police officers and a woman injured.
According to a police report filed at the Kasarani Police Station, the incident occurred at 9:30pm when two police officers, Musyoka and Muturi, met at the lounge. Musyoka, a DCI officer, was accompanied by Nzisa, while Muturi, a regular police officer, was also claiming to be the woman's sweetheart.
When Muturi saw Nzisa with Musyoka, he allegedly asked Musyoka what he was doing with 'his partner', sparking an infuriated response from Musyoka. Musyoka allegedly whipped out his gun and shot Muturi in the hand, prompting Muturi to retaliate by shooting Musyoka in the left part of his neck.
Tragically, Muturi also accidentally shot Nzisa in the abdomen. Musyoka and Nzisa were rushed to Ruaraka Uhai Neema Hospital for emergency treatment, while Muturi took himself to Radiant Hospital in Pangani, where he was treated and discharged.
Investigations into the incident are ongoing, with Kasarani OCPD Peter Mwanzo denying the existence of a love triangle. However, he revealed that preliminary investigations indicated the two police officers were known to each other, but a new twist has emerged suggesting a third party may have been involved in the shooting.
