Police in Bungoma are holding a Ugandan national who surrendered himself to police that he had stolen a car.
The man rushed to the station after a swarm of bees attacked him as he attempted to get away with the vehicle.
Francis Sikadigu is said to have been attacked by the bees as he was driving the car which was suspected to have been stolen.
He caused a scene after rushing to Bungoma Police Station with the bees following in tow.
Sikadigu then rushed out of the police station and sought a traditional healer in a bid to be set free from the bees.
John Wafula, the vehicle’s owner, said he was approached by the suspect who claimed he wanted five cars for hire on Friday.
He said they met at a hotel in town to discuss the terms for the car hire with Sikadigu who claimed he had a five-day contract.
Wafula claimed that Sikadigu had insisted that he wanted the Toyota Premio and Axio latest models for his clients.
“I gave him a quotation of Sh5,000 per car for each of the five days.”
He said that when he came back to the negotiation table, he continued sipping his juice and noticed that he had started feeling dizzy.
Wafula said that he found himself in hospital on Saturday and then noticed that his car keys were missing.
“I approached a traditional doctor who assured me that my car will be found in three days,” he said.
“The traditional medicine man assured me that the suspect will not leave Bungoma town and will be attacked by bees.”
After he was set free from the bees, the man was arrested and taken to Bungoma police station for interrogation.
Bungoma South OCPD David Kirui said they are still investigating the matter.
