Two known criminals have been arrested in connection with the murder of Ugandan Olympian Benjamin Kiplagat in Eldoret, Kenya. Kiplagat, 34, reportedly hit the suspects' motorcycle with his car, after which he was attacked and killed. His body was found with a deep cut on the neck, and a knife believed to have been used in the attack was recovered from one of the suspects. The motive behind the killing remains unclear. Kiplagat had represented Uganda in multiple international events, including the Olympics, and the 2008 World Junior Championships and the 2012 Africa Championships.
