Tuesday, May 19, 2026 - A fun-filled hiking and swimming excursion turned tragic after a young man, believed to be a student at KCA University, drowned at the popular Kieni Forest waterfalls in Gatundu North on Sunday afternoon, May 17th. The victim was part of a group touring the scenic site under an outing organized by Outscape Club, a travel group known for arranging hiking and outdoor adventure activities across Central Kenya. According to witnesses, the man was swimming in the middle of the waterfalls when he was suddenly swept away by a powerful current triggered by the raging waters. Dramatic footage recorded from the riverbank captured the terrifying final moments as the victim struggled helplessly against the fast-moving water before disappearing beneath the surface. In the video, shocked onlookers are heard screaming in panic, desperately calling for someone to save him. “Help him! Help him!” voices from the crowd shouted as the man was carried further downstream by the strong current. A uniformed man and several others could be seen standing helplessly at the edge of the water, watching the unfolding tragedy.
