Suspected Al-Shabaab terrorists on Tuesday killed two people and set two vehicles ablaze at Milihoi area along the Lamu-Witu-Garsen Road in Lamu County.
Eye witness reports indicate that approximately ten assailants waylaid a vehicle transporting liquor from Mombasa to Lamu, forcing the driver and his turnboy out before executing them.
Officers from the Milhoi camp responded to the gunshots, engaging the assailants in a fierce gun battle for about an hour before they fled into the adjacent forest.
A major operation has been launched by security officials in the area to hunt down the terrorists
