Manchester United Fan In Kenya Commit Suicide Because they were defeated by Newcastle

A Kenyan fan unable to cope with Manchester United's loss to Newcastle

committed suicide over the weekend.

Police in Nairobi confirmed the incident on Monday.

John Macharia, 28, plunged to his death from a multi-storey apartment

block in Nairobi after the Red Devils suffered a second home defeat in

four days.

Newcastle's first win at Old Trafford since February 1972 means the

reigning champions are now 13 points adrift of league leaders Arsenal.

"Macharia jumped from seventh floor of an apartment at Pipeline Estate

after realising that his team Manchester United lost 1-0 to Newcastle

at Old Trafford and committed suicide," said Nairobi's County Police

Commander Benson Kibui.

Macharia's death is reminiscent of the suicide by a Kenyan Arsenal fan

in 2009. Suleiman Omondi, 29, was found hanging in his flat after the

Gunners were trounced 3-1 by Manchester United in the second leg of a

Champions League semi-final.

Kibui urged football-obsessed Kenyan fans to support local teams

rather than foreign clubs who do not have a link to the east African

nation.

"The football fans should enjoy the matches... but they should not

commit suicide since life is very precious," Kibui added.

You should charge him to court. *He was acting like a good man until I collected the Master Copy of the movie from the woman I sent and handed over to him. Once he got it, took it over to the printing company and called me for authorisation to print more. Since then, he turned off his phone and when I was able to get him, stories started. Not even $1 from my sweat! I had a deadline and invested everything I had in that project and (was) hoping to recoup before my daughter goes to college. I was even banking on paying her tuition because I don’t want her to go through what I’m going through with the student loan. -What did you go through? *I don’t
