"We recovered pangas, a toy pistol and other items," Urban OCPD Eliud Monari said, confirming the incidence.

During routine patrols, the two with an age bracket of 27-35 were smoked out of their hideout in Ferry at SECCO area a few meters from the crossing channel which is used by more than 300,000 commuters daily.

Monari said one suspect escaped during the raid. Likoni is a crime hotspot and many residents are constantly on the exodus, looking for safer residential houses in the island and other parts of Mombasa.
