Kenyan Man Kills Person in Custody, Injures Sheriff's Deputies after He Crashes into Patrol Car in Houston, Texas

Pombe itamaliza wakenya. It's like a damn curse.

Condolences to the family that lost their loved one and quick recovery to sheriff deputy. How unfortunate that someone had to die and a deputy injured for this guy to stop the nonsense of drinking and driving. There are so many options of getting places nowadays with Uber dominating. Why risk you freedom and lives of others? If this guy was driving the wrong way for awhile he must have been blacked out yet somehow functioning. Wakenya wenzangu, enjoy your drink but don’t take this kind of a risk. Looks like Njogu now belongs in jail wishing that night would not have happened.

Oh my world!. Funga yeye milele ndaima. He is a repeated drunk driver. Put him behind the bars for ever and ever.

To you @GUEST1. What's your take on this story?

He should have parked his luggage long time ago and head to 254 to join Martin Kamotho alias Githeri man so they can continue to party for life as a free man, Ngai now you will be wearing orange color majuu. well condolences to the people who were injured and to the deceased who lost his life this is so sad.

What a coincidence that the dead man was also a drunken driver who was also jeopardizing others lives?

If you get yourself in such a situation don’t rush to big mouth you have no idea what he was going through in his life so talking trush means how your minds are full of shit

Definitely this fellow had aproblem with alcohol.At least cited 3 time for driving drunk!You wonder how many times he had driven drunk...
Now some one is dead,and others hurt.This could have been avoided long time ago, if only the fellow had accepted that he had aproblem with drinking,and worse,he continued to drive drunk.Terrible mistake.
Like they say, its cheaper to get a cab. This one is very very expensive. The problem now is that there are those who still do it despite reading what has befallen this brother...If only we can make the right choices at the right time.
Self driving cars will one day cut DUI drastically. Till then, dont drink and drive.I say this knowing that it will fall on deaf ears.Yes some lessons are very tragic,and painful.We cannot undo what has happened,but we can learn from it.

Unywaji wapombe, kama ilivyo katika mengineo ya madawa ya kulevya, kuna changamoto maksusi kwa Wakenya wengi waishio Marekani. Unyuaji hasa wa mvinyo kupindukia ni tishio kubwa kwa wengi wetu hasa inapobadilika kuwa mazoea. Unaweza kuishi Marekani kwa miaka na dahari kama kwa hakika utafuata sheria za nchi hii kikamilifu. Sielewi katu bw Njogu amekuwa akichukua hatua zipi katika juhudi za kujikwamua kutoka uzoefu huu wa ulevi wa kupindukia. Kuna Wakenya wengi ambao wakitoka tu kazini hivi, mahali ambapo wanatembelea kwanza ni kilabu cha kuuza pombe. Pole sana kwa waadhiriwa wa ajali hio. Mkenya huyu sasa akihitaji kiasi kikubwa cha pesa kumpata wakiri aliye shupafu kumtetea angalao hukumu yake isiwe kali. Sasa haya ndio uwezekano wa mashtaka yatakayompata bw Njogu:
1. Kuendesha gari kwa upande usiokubaliwa.
2. Kuendesha gari akiwa mlevi wa kupindukia.
3. Kutumia silaha kama chombo cha mauaji na majeruhi.
4. Kuendesha gari kihole holela na kuhatarisha maisha ya watumizi wayo, kusababisha kifo cha raia asiye na hatia, na kusababisha majeruhi kwa maofisa wa usalama ambao walikuwa wanatekeleza wajibu wao.
Kesi ya ndugu huyu itakuwa hata ngumu zaidi ikiwa waadhiriwa walikuwa wazungu kutoka jimbo la Texas. Hukumu yake mbaya kiasi kwamba, hata akimaliza kifungo chake, atafushwa hadi Jamhuri bila kukawia.
Tafadhari Wakenya, kama pombe ni tamu kiasi hicho, tafuta rafiki akupeleke nyumbani, au tumia gari la taxi au Uber. Kama ni lazima uinywe tembo, inywe kwa mpango, au ibebe ukanywee kwako.

Am not surprised. This is a tragedy as well as a major crime. Most of my country men and women get real drunk on weekends. This is sickening. Right after partying all night long they get into their vehicles and hit the road. Tragedies waiting to happen every time. They usually laugh or ignore my plead not to drive while drunk. This is a major problem in our community. Life as well as careers are being destroyed due to drunk driving. I just thank God I never had the use for alcohol.

When I drink I don't drive and when I drive I drink water. Njogu, you had coming and you only have yourself to blame. Pole to the passenger who died and the peace officer. Tafadhali wacha gari kwa bar ukilewa au uite mtu sober au uchukue uber, ukitaka maisha bora.

How many of us text and drive? it is arguably worse than drunk driving and yet we are here casting stones.. we all do things that endanger others, driving and drinking is a serious issue and also the legal system that keeps releasing a habitual drunk after all these convictions. There is technology right now that can be used so that nobody is able to start a car if they have any detectable alcohol content in them but it is not being used for some weird reasons

He'd be better off if he had also died. Texas will probably give him the max 99 years. All because of several
damn drinks. While alcoholism is a disease, I wonder if drunks ever see the entire stupidity around this. I mean, 3 DUIs in as many states, come on, this was a long time coming.

Halafu you will hear them bothering those of us in Houston with gofundmes.

It is very important to learn how to manage stress and frustrations. Women need to support the husbands / boyfriend when in crisis. Talking down your man will just make the situation worse. Why do I get the feeling the White Lexus belonged to a woman? Jijazieni.

Very unfortunate or bad luck. Condolence to the family and quick recovery to the officer's. KUSH my brother all will be well. Devil is a liar, amen.

Well, they also said that they plan to investigate the pub that got him drunk to that level. In as much as pubs make a killing out of drunkards, they also have a responsibility believe it or not. Otherwise of what use will that reveller be behind bars or even dead. There have been known cases of bar maids/men in Kenyan pubs around Texas to spike people's drinks, Halafu? Iko siku moja watapatikana.
@John, peleka ufala mbali sana. Better accept reality and work on the next steps with your "beloved" cousin. If you knew that he was going through shit and also gets stupidly drunk you should've chained him, for God's sake you should've locked his doors, apasue kama yeye ni mwanamme kamili. Atleast you would've been dealing with a different case rather than taking someone's life. Ama you think that your cousin's life is more precious than others? Tena you better pray for the quick and complete recovery of the cops who got injured.
To the Kenyan community, lets call a spade a spade. Please stay sane and stay safe. Ile hustle unapitia on a daily basis ni wewe tu unafahamu, vitu zingine may seem enticing but always think long and hard before embarking on things that can get you in trouble. Unapata mtu amekunywa vizuri pub amelewa kulewa na anaeda after-party at 3am, driving some 30-40 miles away, recklessly or even blacked out. Afadhali ulale ndani ya gari lako, u black-out huko. Where is the decency in drinking taratibu and going home without incidents? It is possible to have fun and not kill anyone while at it. But Wakenya ni nani?
