Police in Kisumu have arrested at least 70 minors, all aged below 16 years, at a house party in the city's Mountain View estate. Initial reports say the minors had organized the party and sent invites via Instagram.
The minors, both males and females, were arrested at a house party that had been attended by over 100 teenagers. Those arrested were found smoking bhang in groups inside the house whose owner is yet to be identified and is suspected to be a rented Airbnb.
Police say many others escaped arrest by jumping over the home's fence. The 70 arrested have been taken to Obunga Police Station.
The crackdown was launched by police after they were tipped off by a neighbour who was curious about the large number of young people arriving at the house and the loud music that was being played.
The party organizer is among those who fled the scene when police arrived.
