One dead, 6 injured after speeding beer truck rams matatu in Mwea
One passenger has died on the spot while six others sustained serious injuries after the Nissan matatu they were traveling in was involved in an accident on the Mwea-Embu highway.
Witnesses said the Matatu was struck by a speeding beer truck which forced it to veer off the road.
A middle-aged woman died on the spot while six others were rushed to the Kimbimbi Sub-county hospital and the Embu hospital with serious injuries.
Police have launched a manhunt for the driver of the truck who went missing after the accident.
A senior traffic police officer told Citizen Digital that the driver of the matatu sustained serious injuries in the crash.
“We are hunting for the driver of the truck driver but the driver of the Nissan matatu was seriously injured,” he said.
