An altercation between Kimilili MP Didmus Barasa and his rival Brian Khaemba of DAP let one dead at Chebukwabi polling station.
The Police are currently looking for Didmus Barasa over the shooting.
Bungoma head of DCI Joseph Ondoro said an altercation broke out between the two prompting Khaemba to leave and headed to his car.
