According to neighbours and eyewitnesses, the suspects ambushed the banker near his home in the Kitale Township area just after sunrise.
The banker had exited his car while returning from an early meeting when the group reportedly overpowered him and grabbed his laptop, before jumping into a waiting vehicle.
The driver sped away in an apparent bid to escape, but within minutes lost control of the car along a nearby bend.
