Man injured as stray lion strikes fear along busy highway in Nairobi

One of the lions that had strayed from the park walks back after it was lead to the Nairobi National Park by game warders on 19th February 2016. KWS reported on 29th February,2016 they located 2 more along the by pass road near Langata.

Fear gripped Nairobi residents yesterday morning when a stray lion made its way to the busy Mombasa Road. Residents plying the route got a rude shock when a man (first witness) came face-to-face with the lion taking a nap in a thicket.

The man is said to have screamed to alert other passers-by who apparently instead of running for safety, went closer to see the king of the jungle.
