A man and woman are separately admitted to hospitals in a case of attempted murder and suicide in Nairobi\u2019s Greenfield estate, Donholm, Nairobi.<\/span><\/p>\n

The man was stabbed and seriously wounded before he jumped from the balcony of his first-floor house for his safety.<\/p>\n

He had engaged a woman believed to be his wife in a fight in their house on Wednesday morning before the woman chased her to the balcony while armed with a kitchen knife.<\/p>\n

Witnesses said the man ran out screaming for help before he jumped to the ground floor and was later rushed to hospital with stab wounds.<\/p>\n

Police said he was admitted to the Aga Khan Green Span Medical Center for attention.<\/p>\n

It was then that the woman locked herself in the house and lit a fire, police said.<\/p>\n

Neighbours raised an alarm and rushed there before helping to contain the spread of the fire.<\/p>\n

Officials from the Nairobi Fire brigade came to the aid of the incident and the woman was rescued from therein unconscious, police said.<\/p>\n

She was rushed to the Mama Lucy Kibaki hospital in unstable condition.<\/p>\n

Property of unknown value was destroyed by the fire.<\/p>\n

Police said they are waiting for the woman and man to recover for grilling to establish what motivated the incident.<\/p>\n

Cases of murder and suicide have been on the rise amid campaigns to address them.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, three suicide incidents were reported to police separately.<\/p>\n

The first incident happened in Siongiroi, Bomet County where a teacher at Irongo primary school in Nakuru County was found dead after a suicide mission.<\/p>\n

He was identified as Kennedy Kipkemoi, 38.<\/p>\n

Police said he hanged himself on a rooftop of a toilet.<\/p>\n

The motive of the incident is yet to be known. The body was moved to the mortuary.<\/p>\n

In Ntulele, Narok County, a decomposed body of one Jacob Mungai, 22 in a thicket after a suspected suicide.<\/p>\n

Police said the deceased had threatened to die by suicide after his attempts to marry a neighbor were rejected.<\/p>\n

The body was moved to the mortuary pending autopsy and other investigations.<\/p>\n

In Migori, a man who had gone missing was found dead in a forest in a suspected suicide incident.<\/p>\n

Police said Dominic Osiro, 47 went missing on January 5 prompting a search, which led to the discovery of the body in Migori Nyasare forest with a rope on the neck hanging from a branch of a Cyprus tree.<\/p>\n

The body had no physical injuries and no suicide note was found.<\/p>\n

Police officers visited the scene and moved the body to Migori County Referral Hospital mortuary pending post-mortem and investigations.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
