A police officer attached to Kabarnet Police Station in Baringo County was admitted to hospital after reporting that he woke up at his residence within the police lines with blood stains on his bedding and injuries after a night out in Kabarnet town.
According to a police report recorded under OB No. 27/15/07/2026 at 1240 hours, PC No. 254171 Simon Ngethe reported that on July 11, 2026, at about 1830 hours, he left for a club within Kabarnet town where he consumed alcoholic drinks before becoming intoxicated.
“He went to a club within Kabarnet town, which he could not remember, where he consumed alcoholic drinks and became drunk,” the OB report reads in part.
