An American national died after he was shot by two armed robbers
on Wednesday for resisting their attempt to snatch his back pack.
A witness said Cameron Huntley, a language teacher in the area, was shot once in the head and twice in the chest.
Huntley is said to have been walking towards Junction Mall while
carrying his laptop, in the company of his girlfriend. He was shot as the woman watched.
Nairobi police commander Japheth Koome
said the two
were confronted by the robbers who
were on a boda boda.
Koome said Huntley was taken to
Nairobi Women's Hospital in critical condition and died upon arrival.
He said investigations were launched.
