While the Kenyan city is not exactly well-known for its safe environments,  the amount of fire power used was enough to kill at least 30 people with many injured in the aftermath.

The gunmen were not intending to be taken lightly, wielding assault rifles tossing live grenades into crowds of people running for cover.  Details are scarce, but foreigners, including American citizens, were reported among the causalities.  The United States Department has yet to release any more information.

Those who didn’t, were not.
