A 33-year-old man was yesterday charged with stealing a toothbrush and lipstick, among other personal items, belonging to a woman at DCI headquarters.

James Kamau allegedly committed the offense on May 3 at the DCI headquarters on Kiambu Road. He is said to have stolen a handbag belonging to Irene Muthengi. Kamau is also accused of handling stolen property.

Police records show the handbag contained body lotion, lipstick and baby wipes, Sh200 and other property. Police said Muthengi boarded a matatu from the City Centre heading to the CID headquarters. When alighting Kamau allegedly snatched the bag and then crossed the road, headed to the nearby forest.
