Kenya is drama after drama, and a new incident from Tendwet, Narok, has once again stirred the internet. A viral video shows a man assaulting a police officer who was attempting to prevent him from walking into the path of a helicopter that was about to take off.
According to eyewitnesses, the man had rushed toward the chopper in an attempt to retrieve his daughter’s dog, which had wandered dangerously close to the aircraft.
The helicopter’s propellers were already spinning, posing a life-threatening risk. Sensing imminent danger, a police officer sprinted to block the man from approaching the chopper.
