We were able to record a statement with Sharon Kosgey, and we have confirmed that indeed Kiptum was behind the wheel, the investigation is still ongoing, and once we are through with the investigation, we will deliver the findings,” one of the officers noted.

The death of a 24-year-old athlete has been surrounded by several stories where among the many stories, his father was recorded saying that before the death of his son, four unidentified men went to his home and enquired about his presence but refused to conceal their identity.

Besides that, one lady emerged on TikTok crying by alleging she was Kiptum’s girlfriend. That brought the internet to a standstill where Kiptum’s family distanced themselves from her allegations.

However, the head of state William Ruto in the process of befitting Kiptum a better send-off, ordered engineers to build a nice house for the late marathoner as a way of honouring and mourning with his family.
