The gardener is said to have hit Corporal Timothy Mugendi Rucha on the rear part of the head after the confrontation turned physical, according to a police report.

“The officer was taken to Nairobi West Hospital in critical condition with multiple head injuries,” reads the police report in part.

The incident occurred at around 12.20 pm on Thursday at Ruto’s private residence in Karen, Nairobi.

The gardener identified as Nicholas Kibiwot Rono has since been arrested and is being held in police custody pending arraignment.

What caused the altercation between the two remains unclear.

    I was expecting to hear the opposite really, that the Gardener suffered severe injuries coz I expected the Police Officer to be tactical in fights!

    Anyway, let’s wait to hear what happened rather than makes assumptions!

    Huyu ndugu yetu Samoei bila shaka anaamini ya kwamba WaKenya wote ni wajinga.
    Ametumia mali ya umma bila kufanya kazi yoyote kwa muda wa miaka minne na sasa amekubaliwa kugombea urais.
    Kama ni mapenzi yangu, tungekuwa na wagombeaji urais wengine badala yake na Ndugu yetu Raila.
    Wote wawili hawawezi kupita mtihani wa Katiba yetu mpya kwenye Sura ya Sita (6).

    My only prayer is Kibiwot Rono makes it to court.
    We all know what happens when you beat a cop in KENYA.
