At least six people are feared dead and 16 others sustained injuries following a tragic accident along the Bomet-Narok highway.

The Saturday 6 pm accident involved a Nissan Matatu and a secondary school bus at Olonin Bridge as they travelled in opposite directions.

At the time of the accident, the matatu was travelling toward Narok when it was involved in head on collision with the bus that attempted to overtake other vehicles.

Three people on board the matatu died on the spot as three other, two women and a girl died after they were taken to Ololulung’a sub-county hospital  for treatment. Their bodies were then transferred to Narok County Hospital pending autopsy.

Both vehicles were towed to  Narok South sub-county police headquarters for inspection with the driver of the bus reported to have escaped the scene.
