The incident occurred around 2 p.m. in Kanyonza II Cell, Lyakahungu Town Council, following a confrontation between the ranger and his girlfriend, Atukwatse Gloria, who managed to escape.

The victims, Juliet Turyahabwa, 40, and a 60-year-old woman identified as Kedrase, were residents of Lyakahungu Town Council. According to eyewitness Bosco Kyakabare, the dispute began when Naboth argued with Atukwatse, a local bar operator.
