Gor Mahia players lose valuables after suspected thieves break into Kasarani changing room

A section of Gor Mahia players and technical staff lost their belongings after suspected thieves broke into the team's changing room at Kasarani Stadium this afternoon.

K'Ogalo were hosting Nairobi City Stars in a Football Kenya Federation Premier League (FKFPL) fixture which they emphatically won 4-1 when the incident occurred.

"The matter has been reported to the police and we hope action will be taken because this is now the second time such an occurrence is being reported at Kasarani," an official of the club anonymously told Mozzart Sport.

The theft is believed to have happened during the second half with the thieves breaking a window to gain entry into the changing room.

Some of the valuables that were stolen include cell phones and money.

"From the look of things, the thieves were in a hurry and only made away with what was readily available. We hope the police will use CCTV evidence to identify and arrest them," the official said.

Gor Mahia hammered City by goals from Geofrey Ochieng, Benson Omala, Rooney Onyango and Austin Odhiambo.

City's sole goal was scored by Dennis Oalo.

The win pushed the defending champions to joint top of the league with Posta Rangers on seven points a piece, but with the latter enjoying superior goal difference.
