| Carjackers shot dead two women in a US embassy vehicle in Nairobi’s western outskirts on Saturday, and police killed two of the fleeing gunmen during a shootout in the bush. Police spokesman Gideon Kibunjah said two policemen were also shot and wounded as they chased the gunmen armed with AK-47s during the midday carjacking on the main highway in the Kenyan capital, nicknamed “Nairobbery” by its residents. Gangsters driving another vehicle had stopped in front of a black four-wheel drive bearing diplomatic plates issued to the US and ordered the five occupants out, he said. |
