Thirteen Kenyan police are missing following an overnight
ambush by suspected al Shaabab militants in the northeast of the country close
to the border with Somalia, a police spokesman said Tuesday.
"There was an ambush
on officers who were on patrol and as a result, 13 officers are missing,"
police spokesman George Kinoti said. "Two others sustained injuries and
have been taken to hospital."
Local officials said more
than 10 officers may have been killed in Monday night's ambush, while Kenyan
media reported the number of dead could be as high as 20.
