Three people died, among them a standard 8 pupil, and another one was seriously injured after they were struck by lightning at a funeral in Kisii County.
The three were among mourners who had attended the burial of Nyarumi Onami when heavy rain accompanied by lightening pounded the area at about 5pm.
According to the residents, there were signs of rain in the area which made most of them leave the burial site before the rain began.
However, the three who had remained at the site were struck by lightening and died on the spot.
The bodies of the deceased were taken to Kenyenya District Hospital in Kisii.
