Police in Molo Sub-County have launched a manhunt for the driver of a land cruiser pick-up that was involved in an accident at Migaa area along the Nakuru-Eldoret highway while ferrying bhang stashed in ten bags. 

According to Molo Sub-County Police Commander, Mwenda Muthamia, the driver of the vehicle is said to have fled immediately after the accident and they have not established whether there were other occupants in the vehicle.

17 are said to be nursing serious injuries as 10 having minor injuries were treated and discharged at Molo Sub-County hospital.

Mwenda urged motorists to be keen with road signs and adhere to such adding that the accident scene was among the black spots along that highway.
