Two cattle traders have died while fighting over a woman after slashing each other at Oljorai in Gilgil Sub-county of Kenya.
Viewers were left shocked as the married attacked each other with machetes. One had his neck completely severed and died on the spot; the other died after arriving at a nearby health centre.
A witness identified as Abel Kiprokon disclosed that the two men had been cohabiting with the same woman, a mother of three, for the last two years without knowing.
Both men, who are married, did not know each other until Wednesday morning when one of them found the other having breakfast in the woman’s house.
“The two went after each other using machetes,” Kiprokon said.
Speaking about the incident, Gilgil Sub-county Commissioner Ndambuki Mutheki said police are investigating the matter. He noted that the woman in question was being sought.
