Stephen Muiruri Kamau a.k.a. Mau, a Kenyan man who has been found dead in his truck in Laredo, Texas, had been missing for hours before his body was discovered thanks to a GPS system.
Authorities say Kamau passed away on April 17th, 2021.
Kamau was a long haul truck driver. On April 17th 2021, which coincidentally was his birthday, Kamau’s body wa found in the cabin of his truck after his employer initiated a search as he could not locate him.
“He was delivering a load from California to Texas. On Tuesday, the owner of the cargo reached out to dispatch to inquire about his cargo. Dispatch tried calling him q out any luck So, he used the GPS tracking and found out that he hasn’t moved from the track stop, said K Kamau Njuk, a friend to the deceased.
“So they rtequested a police welfare check who, upon knocking on the truck door and getting no response, opened it,” he added
“The autopsy is being done as it took a long time to locate his kin. The mom back mom is requesting the body be sent to her as she cant travel,” said Njuk.
Janet, his cousin, is working with the Medical examiner and the state judge to ensure the body is released, and sent back to Kenya.
Janet is a distant cousin of Kamau and his family back home is counting on her to take his body back to Kenya. Kamau did not have any direct family members here in the USA.
In the meantime, we plead for your contribution to ship the body back home and other expenses. Janet will be leaving to Kenya for the funeral. *Estimated cost – $13,000**
