New details have emerged concerning the horrible accident that took place along Lang'ata Road yesterday. Witnesses who saw the deceased before he died said that they had pleaded with him not to leave before his ill-fated accident.
Some of the witnesses who are staff at the Weston Hotel begged him not to drive, to sleep it off or find a designated driver to get him home.
But the deceased insisted that he didn’t need anybody’s help and could drive himself home in his Mercedes-Benz. The man, not formally identified, crashed minutes after leaving the establishment, yesterday morning.
Lang’ata Deputy OCPD John Samburumo said the driver, who was not formally identified, was driving at a very high speed.
Samburumo said he was coming from the Weston Hotel at about 7.20 am and appeared drunk.
The officer said another car that parked inside the airport also was hit.
