2 die in grenade attack at Kenya church

Two people were killed in a suspected al-Shabab attack at a church in an eastern Kenyan town, a police official said Sunday. Kenyan police chief Leo Nyongesa said that a woman and her two grandchildren were also injured when attackers hurled a grenade at the Pentecostal Church in Garissa late Saturday.

 

Ibrahim Makunyi, the head pastor at the church, said the house near the entrance of the church that belonged to a church elder had been bombed. "One of the dead is a member of the choir, and the other is the son of the church elder," he said. (AP)
