Kevin Kleigh was initially thought to be a foreigner but has since then been identified as splashy Nairobi businessman, Kevin Obia alias The Don.<\/p>\n

Kevin was part of a group of visitors at an apartment block in Kileleshwa on Saturday where the face-off occurred.<\/p>\n

From their end, the police said that they are finalizing investigations before they charge him in court, soon after.<\/p>\n

Mr Obia, who claims he is a licensed gun holder, has had his gun confiscated and police are trying to establish if at all the firearm certificate presented, was actually genuine.<\/p>\n

He has currently been released on police bond.<\/p>\n

Kevin will however face charges by Thursday once the investigations are done.<\/p>\n

Who is he?<\/h1>\n

\u00b4The Don\u00b4 is well known for his luxurious Instagram posts, where he either takes photos alongside well-known local and International celebrities or flaunting next to lavish cars and houses.<\/p>\n
