Riots broke out in Kenya after a Muslim leader was killed in Mombasa. Aboud Rogo was suspected of aiding a Somali group affiliated with Al Qaeda and was shot dead in a car he was in. Muslims in Kenya are pointing the blame at police and have been rioting since the shooting. So far two police officers and one civilian are dead due to the riots, according to Reuters. Civilians in the area are fearful that the tensions may bring Muslims against Christians in the area and that the violence seen may worsen.
