Kelvin Kiptum’s Father Samson Cheruiyot Recalls Receiving Strange Visitors 4 Days to Son’s Tragic Death.
Speaking during an interview on Monday afternoon, Cheruiyot noted that Kiptum was his only son and his death was a blow to his family.
Cheruiyot further indicated that four days before Kiptum’s death, he received a strange visit from four individuals who refused to identify themselves.
“Unidentified people came to my house and told me that they were visitors,” Cheruiyot recalled stating that the four refused to disclose the motive of their visit.
Kiptum was my only child. Now he has left me and my grandchildren. I do not know what to do. If the government can, it should help us. We are stuck now with no one who can help us.”
Cheruiyot revealed that he was watching the evening news when he first received a call that a car belonging to his son had been spotted.
Kiptum passed away after a car he was driving landed into a ditch claiming both his life and that of his coach. A lady who was in the car with them survived after sustaining serious injuries.
A police report indicated that he lost control and veered off-road entering into a ditch on his left side. He drove in the ditch for about 60 meters before hitting a big tree.
