Robert Cullens Murimi, a renowned tour operator, was reportedly killed by a
stray elephant in Maralal.
According to a police report seen by Citizen Digital, the 50-year-old man
was on a tour of Nkoteiya Conservancy when the elephant attacked.

Murimi had been in the company of three Kenya Wildlife Service (KWS)
rangers and his business partner: a Spaniard identified as Jordin.

The report that was filed by a senior warden from the KWS Maralal station
said Jordin and the rangers managed to flee to safety but Murimi was not so
lucky.

Preliminary reports indicate that his body had multiple injuries although
it is yet to be established whether they were consistent with an animal
attack.

The body was later flown to Nairobi onboard a helicopter.
