Security Alert 28, January, 2010 Submitted by a Security Colleague  INCIDENT DATE:                 23 JANUARY 2010 LOCATION:        FISHERMAN'S CAMP, LAKE NAIVASHA A diplomatic staff member was camping in a tent at Fisherman's Camp on Friday night when, before 0300 early Saturday morning, three machete-wielding youths attacked the tent. After the initial slashes at the tent, the two victims instinctively leapt from the tent, and showed the presence of mind to adopt a passive approach vis-a-vis the attackers and offer them money. A significant amount of cash was handed over, after which the attackers fled to the neighbouring woods. The two victims (one of whom sustained machete cuts on her arms, the other severe lacerations on both his arms), at this point in considerable shock, sought assistance from neighbouring campers and campsite security. Security guards arrived within a couple of minutes, and an additional patrol car with security guards followed soon after. The victims received first aid in Naivasha before rushing to Nairobi Hospital where they received prompt medical treatment.
