Dog Saves Elderly Woman From Rape In A Maize Plantation

A dog in Uasin Gishu has proved to be an unlikely hero after its coincidental intervention helped save an elderly woman from a rape ordeal.

The elderly woman, 74 years of age was walking heading to her son’s residence in Chepsiria sub-location when she was pounced upon by a man from behind who dragged her to a maize plantation while attempting to undress her.

She was however saved when a dog which had been trailing her followed them to the scene scaring off the would be rapist who took off thinking they were being trailed.

The granny gave a description of her attacker which led to his pursuit as he was suspected to have been a close neighbour. She is very much thankful for the dog’s intervention saving from what would have been a scarring ordeal.
