| Two in US embassy car shot dead in Nairobi |
| 2007-01-28 |
| Carjackers shot dead two women in a US embassy vehicle in Nairobi’s western outskirts on Saturday, and police killed two of the fleeing gunmen during a shootout in the bush. Police spokesman Gideon Kibunjah said two policemen were also shot and wounded as they chased the gunmen armed with AK-47s during the midday carjacking on the main highway in the Kenyan capital, nicknamed “Nairobbery” by its residents. Gangsters driving another vehicle had stopped in front of a black four-wheel drive bearing diplomatic plates issued to the US and ordered the five occupants out, he said. |

| #3 nothing says "Africa" quite like the senseless butchery of unarmed women. It's difficult to butcher armed women without help from UN. |

| #2 I'm afraid nothing says "Africa" quite like the senseless butchery of unarmed women. More like 'rape and senseless butchery'. |

| #1 The victims were the wife and mother-in-law of a U.S. Embassy employee, said Robert Kerr, an embassy spokesman. "These were people who loved Kenya," Kerr said. He did not provide other details. First mistake, bringing loved ones to Africa. Second mistake, ignoring the Regional Security Officer's (RSO) published guidance and nievly treking along without a DIPSEC detail. Insufferable murdering bastards reverting to their Mau Mau roots again. I'm afraid nothing says "Africa" quite like the senseless butchery of unarmed women. |
