Kenyan athlete Nicholas Bett killed in road accident
Kenya's Nicholas Bett, the 2015 world champion in the 400-meter hurdles, has been killed in a road accident. He was 28.
Nandi County police commander Patrick Wambani says Bett was killed in the car crash early Wednesday in Kenya's high-altitude training region in the west of the country.
Bett's coach, Vincent Mumo, says the athlete's SUV hit bumps in a road and rolled.
Bett won gold in the 400 hurdles at the world championships in Beijing. He had only returned from the African championships in Nigeria on Monday.
