Gambler kills two casino managers in Eastleigh over Sh30,000 loss

A gambler at a casino in Eastleigh on Tuesday hacked to death two managers of the casino after he gambled and lost Sh30,000.

The man, a Tanzanian national, was later lynched by a mob as he tried to attack a third worker at the casino.

Police said the man confronted a female manager in the casino and demanded more cash to gamble with. When the manager declined to give him the money, he attacked her with a Somali sword, killing her on the spot.

The assailant then attacked a security manager who had intervened to help the woman and killed him on the spot.

A third security manager was injured during the incident before the man was subdued and killed by a mob.
