NAIROBI (Reuters) – At least five people were killed when a grenade ripped apart a minibus in Nairobi’s Somali-dominated Eastleigh neighborhood on Sunday, a Reuters witness said.

“I saw bodies ripped apart,” the Reuters photographer said.

Nairobi regional police commander Moses Ombati said a grenade had been thrown into the minibus, commonly referred to as matatus in Kenya.
