The incident which happened on May 13 was reported on May 15.
The car used by the unnamed officer who is attached to the Nakuru Dog Unit was on Tuesday spotted in the vicinity of Kabarak University.

During the arrest, police confiscated 29 rolls of bhang stashed in a margarine can.
However, his accomplice managed to flee and a manhunt for him has since been launched.
