A
Kenyan man on Wednesday killed a US officer from Massachusetts
State Police department who was conducting a traffic stop in one of the
highways.
The officer identified as
Trooper Thomas Clardy had
stopped a vehicle over traffic violation before returning to his car to
record the statement, when David Njuguna, who was driving at a high speed on the
left lane, veered across three lanes and crashed into his cruiser.
Clardy's vehicle was pushed
into the car he had stopped as a result of the great impact caused
by Njuguna's car.
Emergency team responding to
the accident found Clardy with severe injuries and rushed him to UMass Memorial
Medical Center where he was pronounced dead.
30-year-old, Njuguna, was
also airlifted to the medical Centre with multiple injuries.
Police are now seeking to
suspend his driving licenses stating that he poses an 'immediate threat'.
He is also set to face charges
of negligent operation of a motor vehicle and failure to stay in marked lanes,
with reports indicating that more charges could be added.
