NAIROBI, Kenya, Jan. 27
Two Americans, including an elderly woman, were shot to death on Saturday afternoon by carjackers in Nairobi, the capital, according to American and Kenyan officials.
The two victims, relatives of an American Embassy employee, were traveling in an embassy car with three other Americans when a truck cut them off, police officials said. Four men jumped out with Kalashnikov assault rifles and ordered the occupants out of their car.
“Apparently, the driver and an elderly woman sitting in front did not move fast enough,” a police spokesman said. “So the bandits shot them.”
Nairobi has been plagued by violent crime, and American officials said they did not believe the attack was related to terrorism.
