Four people have been killed in a grisly road crash in Isiolo County.

A truck driver ferrying goods to the border town of Moyale reportedly lost control at Subuiga Hill in Meru County, 39 km South of Isiolo town early today, before it descended downhill.

The truck hit three vehicles, a motorcycle and pedestrians near Isiolo County Market, who had jammed roadside stalls to buy goods mostly for Christmas.

Thirteen other people, mostly pedestrians, were also injured in the accident.

A man, who gone to buy Christmas clothes for his children, is among those killed.

Isiolo County Commissioner George Natembeya said two people died on the spot as Isiolo Level Five Hospital Superintendent Mohammed Guyo said one person succumbed to injuries.
