MANDERA , Kenya, Dec. 22 (UPI) -- An Islamic terrorist group's attack on a bus in Kenya was foiled when passengers refused to be split into Muslim and Christian groups, a local leader said.
Two people died and three were injured in the ambush by al-Shabab in Kenya's northeastern Mandera County on Monday. The death toll could have been higher, Gov. Ali Roba said, but the 62 people on the bus refused to be separated between Muslim and non-Muslims.
