Exploding transformer causes stampede at Kenyan campus - one dead

One Kenyan student died and more than 100 others were injured after an exploding electricity transformer caused a stampede, in a sign of high tensions a week after gunmen stormed another university campus, officials said. The student who died was among others who jumped from as high as five floors up, fearing the University of Nairobi's Kikuyu campus had come under attack, university vice chancellor Peter Mbithi told Reuters.
