House Boy Injured in Fatal Grenade Attack

News
A houseboy in Kinubi, a suburb of Hoima town was last evening wounded in a fatal grenade attack.
Siraji Kasasa, was injured while trying to hurl a grenade at the house of retired Captain Adam
Kyamanywa of Kinubi suburb Hoima town-his former employees.
The relationship between the houseboy and his employers went sour last week after he was sacked for trying to rape his employer's daughter.
Kasasa left the home but promised to revenge his dismissal. On Sunday afternoon, Kasasa came back to the home armed with a grenade and claiming that he wanted to meet the family members.
Florence Aciro, the Officer in Charge of Kinubi police post says that the grenade blew off while the houseboy tried to detonate it, blowing off his hands. He was rushed to Hoima Hospital in critical condition.
None of the targeted family members was hurt in the attack.
Aciro says that the police are investigating the circumstances under which the houseboy was sacked and how he obtained the grenade.
