An Improvised Explosive Devise (IED) that had been set up by al Shabaab terrorists hit and killed two curious hyenas in a bizarre incident in Konton area, Wajir County.
The area is near the Kenya-Somalia border where the terror group and their sympathisers roam freely targeting security agents and government officials.
Police said they heard an explosion on Friday midnight from their station and knew the terrorists were either on their way to the precincts or were attacking a mobile team.
This prompted the officers to go on alert but no attack came on the camp.
When they went on patrol Saturday morning, they realized two hyenas had been killed by the IED that had been set on the road to target security vehicles on the move.
The IED seem to have been set by an expert together with a battery to set it off.
