A Police officer based at Doldol station in Laikipia County is on the run after shooting dead his colleague using an AK47.

According to report, the officer identified as Titus Keen escaped with the loaded gun immediately after shooting dead the colleague identified as Leonard Ojwang.

Police have hence launched a manhunt for Titus, who is armed and dangerous.

This comes barely a month after the late female cop Caroline Kangogo was accused of killing two of his colleagues and escaped.

She went on the run days after John Ogweno, a police constable, was found dead in his car at Kasarani police line in Nakuru. Kangogo was linked to his shooting.

A few days later, Peter Ndwiga, a businessman, was also found dead in a lodging in Juja. His shooting, too, was linked to the policewoman.

Police thereafter announced they had launched a manhunt for Kangogo, who they said was a key suspect in the murders.

Kangogo would later be found dead, taking with her anything she may have known about the killings to the grave.
