notes: More than 300 boda boda riders from Murang'a County rode to Meru County (exact location not known) on Monday where they arrested a suspected motorcycle thief, lynched him and beat up policemen who tried to intervene to disperse them. The officers lobbed teargas canisters and shooting in the air. The riders smashed the police van's windows injuring two officers. Journalists were also repulsed. After the police fled, the riders stoned the suspect to death and burnt him.
