Several cops killed as Kenya polls open

Kenyans queued from far before dawn as polls opened on Monday for hard-fought elections, hours after several policemen were killed in an ambush in the port city of Mombasa.

The elections are the first since bloody post-poll violence five years ago in which over 1 100 people were killed, and observers have repeatedly warned of the risk of renewed conflict.

Voters began lining up outside polling stations from as early as 04:00 to cast their votes in the historic election, two hours ahead of the officially opening of the polls, although there were short delays reported in some areas.
