A man who is suspected to have been scaling walls and robbing residents of Kilimani and Kileleshwa estates has been arrested.
According to the police, Kennedy Otieno Oyier has been stealing electronics, money and jewellery.
The residents of the two estates have been complaining about the burglar aka "Spiderman 3" for awhile.
Reportedly, Kennedy is a brother of another suspect John Otieno Oyier alias Spider-Man 2, who had been arrested in January this year and charged in court over a similar style of burglary.
Police recovered several laptops in John's home in Kawangware. He is currently held at the Industrial Area prisons.
After his brother was arrested, Kennedy had been on the run for weeks when he knew police were looking for him.
According to police reports, he and his brother got skills of scaling the walls from a movie that they watched online.
Kennedy was taken to Kilimani Police Station.
Nairobi police boss Augustine Nthumbi said there are ongoing investigations to establish if the suspect is linked to any other incidents that have been reported elsewhere.
He said, “We are looking for more suspects who we believe are in the cartel.”
