A statement from the Kenyan Police Command said that armed men from the Al-Shabaab group, which fights in Somalia, attacked a police camp near the Kenyan border, killing six reservists and taking weapons.<\/p>\n

Police spokesman Michael K Muchiri said that the attack on the camp in Garissa County by Al-Shabaab fighters, who are affiliated with Al-Qaeda, also seriously injured four Kenyan reservists.<\/p>\n

Muchiri revealed that the Al-Shabaab gunmen shot and stabbed the soldiers, then looted the camp and took weapons. He added that an undisclosed number of Al-Shabaab militants were killed during the attack.<\/p>\n
