Davis Mwabili popularly known as Inspekta Mwala, on Monday, allegedly hit and killed a pedestrian in Kaloleni, Kilifi County.
Confirming the incident, Kilifi police commander, Patrick Okeri, stated that the media personality knocked down a 35-year-old man, killing him on the spot.
The incident took place at Kaloleni town on Mazeras Highway when the actor hit a man who was crossing the road, The Nation reported.
The police also disclosed that the radio presenter was out on police bail, adding that his vehicle had been impounded to aid in the investigations.
The pedestrian's body was taken to Coast General Hospital Mortuary in Mombasa.
On August 17, 2019, the popular actor was called out by a section of social media users for “disrespecting” one of his co-hosts at Radio Citizen, Melody Sinzore.
The veteran actor hand grabbed Sinzore by the neck as he goaded her to admit that she was his wife.
Netizens, who are typically assume the role of judge and the jury on the Internet, had their say on whatever was transpiring in the video and very few were empathetic to the veteran actor.
"Mwala is no longer funny he has aged and has no respect too, I think his academic level is too low, he requires advice, also too much of pride," Nicholas Gichuki noted.
"Shame shame shame. All the 3 of you have totally lowered your dignity and that of your radio station. As fully mature-minded people, they should have sought for a diplomatic way of handling their differences," stated Kennedy Angaya.
