A robbery suspect was yesterday killed by angry members of the public at Korinda in Busia as the suspect attempted to break into a shop. The suspect was among a gang of 10 robbers who had raided a businesswoman at Bungeng'i market at around midnight. The trader alerted police before members of the public responded to her distress calls and intercepted the armed thugs. Part of the gang escaped but angry members of the public traced the deceased in a garbage pit. The mob flushed the suspect out and slashed him to death with machetes. The irate mob vowed to continue killing suspected robbers.
