Two security guards were Saturday night killed in an attack on a mall where property valued at millions of shillings were stolen in Eastleigh, Nairobi. Two others are missing after the attack at Moyale Mall in Eastleigh, police said.

The deceased were slaughtered after they resisted a robbery that seems to have been planned and executed well. Their throats were slit in a macabre manner and a pool of blood caked around their bodies when police arrived there.
Those missing were manning the ground floor of the mall while the deceased were on the second floor when a gang of unknown number struck Saturday at about midnight.
