Thursday, June 25, 2026 - Police officers from Sidindi Police Station recovered two cows suspected to have been stolen after pursuing a vehicle along the Kisumu-Busia Road in Siaya County during an early morning operation.

According to a police report, the incident occurred at around 4:30 a.m while officers were conducting routine patrols in the Mabeya area.

The officers spotted a maroon saloon car and signaled the driver to stop, but he ignored the orders and sped off towards Mumias.

The officers immediately launched a pursuit and eventually intercepted the vehicle in the Sidindi-Sigalame area.

Upon realizing they had been cornered, the driver and his passenger abandoned the vehicle and fled on foot, evading arrest.

A search of the vehicle led to the recovery of two cows that had been tightly tied and loaded inside the saloon car.

Officers also recovered a plastic toy gun believed to have been in the suspects’ possession.

The recovered animals are being held at a police station as investigations continue and efforts are made to identify and reunite them with their rightful owners.

Police have launched a manhunt for the suspects, who remain at large.
