On Wednesday, May 20, 2020, a Kenyan man lost his life in a tragic car accident in Richmond, US. The incident occurred after he allegedly stabbed his wife multiple times at their home, leaving her with severe injuries.
According to local police, the man, identified as Christopher Mburu, drove his car and crashed it in the woods after a domestic situation. The vehicle veered off the road and hit a tree at high speed, causing it to catch fire.
Firefighters were forced to use foam to control and put out the flames, which were engulfing the vehicle in a wooded ditch. Unfortunately, Christopher Mburu later succumbed to his injuries.
Police had initially responded to the man's home after a 911 call reported a domestic dispute. Upon arrival, they found a woman with multiple stab wounds and took her to the hospital, where she was listed in stable condition.
Local media reported that the stabbing occurred after the mother of three threatened to file for divorce following a previous assault.
