Message: [QUOTE="Munyaradzi Mafaro, post: 62233, member: 636"] Three additional victims died on Monday from injuries sustained during a highway collision near Kikopey on Sunday afternoon, raising fatalities to 16. The crash occurred when a 14-seater matatu attempted to overtake, and collided head-on with a lorry along the Nakuru-Nairobi highway. Thirteen passengers died at the scene, and three others later succumbed at a medical facility. Two children were among those who died after hospitalization. The accident happened hours after six people perished in a separate crash involving an ambulance from St Mary's Mission Hospital near Kimende on Saturday evening. Authorities confirmed 21 total deaths from multiple accidents within the same timeframe. Police Commander Emmanuel Opuru stated the matatu passengers had been traveling to a family gathering from Nairobi when the fatal collision occurred. [/QUOTE]
