There have been longstanding feuds between the Borana in Isiolo and Somalis from Garissa over boundaries and pasture.
The militias who are also believed to have stolen an AK47 rifle and a magazine from Keinan have been torching homes in the village since 1pm when they raided.
Security sources told The Standard that a rescue team from Benane Police Station was dispatched but appeared overwhelmed by the unknown number of bandits holed up in the village.
Another contingent of officers has been deployed from Modogashe, while a team from Garbatulla Police Station dispatched to the scene was yet to access the area even as villagers scampered for safety.
