This is a mighty scary story. A man from Kenya who is believed to have murdered as many as 42 women has escaped from a police station in Nairobi, the New York Post reported. What is even more horrifying is that this accused killer and 12 other alleged criminals may have made their getaway with the assistance of police officers.

Collins Jumaisi Khalusha, 33, "and other suspects from Eritrea" hightailed it out of Gigiri police station.
Per the NY Post, "Officials claim the inmates cut through a wire mesh in their cells and scaled a perimeter wall, with top brass only learning of the escape when officers went to the cells to serve the detainees breakfast."
This is a nightmare for law enforcement. Khalusha has been referred to as a "vampire, a psychopath." For someone like that to be at large is very concerning, not to mention the other escapees being on the run as well.
