Death toll has risen in the devastating hailstorm that struck Kalangala District Police Station at Bugala Island on Saturday morning, 15th March, 2025.
The storm, which originated from the eastern side of Kalangala, caused significant damage to the police barracks, leaving almost all officers’ accommodations destroyed and part of the station’s administration roof torn off.
According to SP Kasirye Twaha, PRO Greater Masaka, three lives were lost on the same day. He identified the deceased as D/Sgt Mujasi Michael, and two other civilians yet to be identified while several other officers and members of the community sustained serious injuries.
However, in an update, Twaha says the death toll has now risen to four including Allen Mukyasi Kobusingye, a wife of a police officer, who tragically passed away at Masaka Referral Hospital, while her husband remains in critical condition.
