They were shot dead after being pursued at high-speed by gunmen on a motorcycle. Their own motorcycle driver survived with injuries.

A witness yesterday told Radio Miraya, “At first these people shot at the boda boda rider and he fell, then the unknown gunmen came and shot at the two boys called Oliver and his brother. These people were shot when they were already on the ground... they were speaking in Arabic and after that they collected the bag that had a laptop and they took off.”
