‘Tragic’ Football Fan Killed in Kenya After Allegedly Mocking Arsenal Supporters

A football fan in Kenya has lost his life after allegedly mocking Arsenal fans following their 2-1 loss at home to Wolverhampton Wanderers FC last weekend, according to reports.

According to the Standard Newspaper report, the sad event occurred at Kinamba Centre along the Naivasha-Kirima Road in Kenya as the group of friends argued over the premier league match.

“The middle-aged man was hit on the head with a stone when he started mocking supporters of [Arsenal after the loss],”

“The group was watching the live match that was being aired on television when the incident occurred on Sunday night.

“The deceased was left bleeding from his head outside a petrol station located a few meters from the bar that the friends were drinking.”

A witness identified as Peter by police, went on to explain what transpired between those involved before the unfortunate incident.

“[The argument] degenerated into name-calling and the deceased was chased out of the bar and later attacked and left unconscious,” he revealed.

Police in the country have now launched a manhunt for those involved in the incident.

Arsenal’s loss to Wolves moves Wolves up to sixth in the table, with Arsenal languishing in 14th.

It was a third straight loss at home for the 13-time English champions.
