One man was shot dead during demonstrations in the western Kenyan city of Kisumu on Friday, a hospital official said, following anti-government protests over a cost-of-living crisis and a raft of controversial tax hikes.
"One person died of gunshot wounds while two are still admitted," said Alex Ochieng, administrator at Jaramogi Oginga Odinga Teaching & Referral Hospital, adding that the fatality was a man.
