During Tuesday's incident, the victim's car’s windscreen, body and driver’s window had multiple bullet holes.
The incident caused a huge traffic snarl-up as people gathered around the car to catch a glimpse of the driver.
The killing of a motorist in a drive-by shooting on Thika road by unknown assailants Tuesday rekindled memories of another eerily similar attack in 2018.
In June 2018, a lone male motorist was killed when his car was sprayed with dozens of bullets near the Vincentian Retreat Centre along the Thika superhighway, not far from the scene of Tuesday’s incident.
