Kenya: Student killed in stampede over Nairobi terror scare

One student was killed and over 100 others left injured when a stampede broke out following an explosion at Nairobi university's Kikuyu campus, Sunday. The explosion caused widespread panic around the campus, following the recent Garissa terrorist attack, creating a stampede and leading students to jump from windows to get to safety. The explosion was caused by a malfunction in an electricity transformer on campus. Currently, tensions are high in Kenyan universities following the attack by Islamist terrorists in Garissa 10 days ago, when four Al-Shabaab gunmen attacked the university complex in eastern Kenya. The attackers stormed the building wearing explosives strapped to their bodies and firing AK-47 Kalashnikov assault rifles. After a short siege the militants detonated their bombs, killing themselves in the process.
