Police are pursuing thugs who raided a Kericho church and stole sufurias and spoons which they bundled into a numberless getaway Probox and fled.
In what appears to be a well-coordinated attack on hapless residents, utensils have become something of a hot-cake in Ainamoi.
The robbers went to great lengths of hiring a Probox car just to comfortably hold the utensils, some of which were dirty at the time of the robbery.
The thugs kidnapped guards manning the church compound before breaking door to door looking for the utensils.
The thugs are said to have stormed Chepkurbet Africa Gospel Church(AGC) in Telanet location, Ainamoi sub-county and stole the utensils which they carted to an unknown location.

The Chepkurbet sub-location assistant chief, Thomas Korir, indicated the robbers moved to a shop close to the church and stole items from there as well.
