On Sunday, a violent confrontation in Narok South left at least two people dead and two others seriously injured.

The clashes between members of two communities in Olooloipanki and Oloruashi erupted after a group from one community stormed a village dominated by the rival community in search of a stolen cow.

Two motorbike riders caught in the crossfire succumbed to arrow wounds, while one of the injured is fighting for his life at Kenyatta National Hospital.

Narok County Commissioner Samuel Kimiti confirmed that police are holding one suspect in connection with the incident as investigations continue.

A contingent of security personnel was dispatched to the area to quell the tensions, but the situation remains volatile.
