According to a Twitter user, Muchai Evans, the man had stood in front of the vehicle, hoping to be run over by the police car. However, the officers did not stop, and the man ended up perched on the vehicle's bonnet.
As the scene unfolded, a few people gathered to witness the unusual sight. Kenyans took to social media to share their thoughts, with some questioning the presence of police officers inside the vehicle.
