County traffic officer smashes car after seizing it

What you need to know:

  • The officer then bundled the young man out of the car and stepped on the accelerator. Little did she know that the vehicle was on reverse gear.
  • The impact flattened the front tire of the car. The vehicle’s bumpers, right side mirror and the rear windscreen were also extensively damaged.

A city inspectorate officer in Nairobi has found herself in trouble after causing an accident along Kimathi Street that saw two cars, a motorcycle and three public benches destroyed early on Monday.

It started on Monday with a brief scuffle between the officer and a parking boy who was looking for parking space for a Nissan Note vehicle (reg number, KCA 897U).
