Kenyan police has arrested a man for attempting to bomb the popular and newly constructed, Garden City Mall in Nairobi. The Mall was evacuated earlier today after police discovered three explosive devices. A bomb disposal squad carried out controlled explosions of the devices.
He was overpowered by security guards as he tried to enter the newly-opened Garden City shopping mall. Explosives were then discovered in his bag. The shopping centre was evacuated and it was destroyed on the scene in a controlled explosion by the Kenyan police bomb disposal unit.
It is believed to have been a small explosive device with a battery and a mobile phone attached, which could have been used as a trigger. The man is being held by police who said he did not have any papers on him.
