In Kenya, a man has been dragged to a local court for allegedly stealing ten chairs from a police station, NairobiNews reports.

Gideon Khaemba was separately charged with assaulting his neighbour, breaking into a house, and causing malicious damage.

Khaemba was accused of breaking into the community policing offices with intent to steal and stole the chairs worth Sh7000 (over K51,000) on April 30.

The suspect was also accused of willfully and unlawfully destroying two chairs at Ndung’u’s house which sired the charges of malicious damage to property.

Khaemba is said to have assaulted Ndung’u after he reported him to the community policing elders. Ndung’u had reported that Khaemba was threatening him.

He was freed on a Sh50,000 9over K360,000) bond and an alternative cash bail of Sh30,000 (over K221,000) .
