Eight students of Weru Secondary School in Kasuku, Nyandarua have been arrested over an attempt to burn the institution’s administration block.
Area OCPD Joseph Cheriot on Wednesday said the students caused a fracas at the school on Monday.

“Officers from Kasuku police post found the students had already started a fire at the deputy principal’s office,” Cheriot said.
The police boss said more students may be arrested after investigations into the incident is complete.
“We are looking for more,” he said.
