A tense situation unfolded on the Likoni Ferry crossing in Kenya when a man tried to escape after stealing a mobile phone.
The man, who was among other passengers, took a phone from someone on the ferry. In a panic, he jumped into the Indian Ocean, hoping to get away.
However, things didn’t go as planned. The man soon realized he couldn’t handle the strong currents and began to struggle in the water.
Instead of escaping, he was at risk of drowning.
The ferry passengers, who saw what had happened, alerted the crew.
They quickly organized a rescue and managed to pull the man out of the ocean just in time.
Back on the ferry, the man was not welcomed kindly.
The passengers, angry about the theft and the trouble he caused, decided to take matters into their own hands.
They surrounded him and gave him a beating as a form of street justice, showing their frustration with crime.
Afterward, the man was handed over to the police, who were called to the scene.
This incident serves as a clear reminder that crime doesn’t pay and that actions have serious consequences.
The man’s attempt to escape not only put his life in danger but also led to a rough encounter with the local community.
