Reuters Internet Delivery System NAIROBI, April 6 - Armed thieves burst into Olympic 3,000 metres steeplechase champion Ezekiel Kemboi's home on Monday and attempted to steal his gold medal. Kemboi, who was not at home at the time, said the intruders ordered his wife to hand over the medal and other valuables. "They kept asking my wife where it was, but luckily I have deposited it in a bank vault for safe keeping," he told Reuters by telephone on Wednesday. The intruders made off with money and a camera but their attempt to flee in Kemboi's car failed after it stalled in the driveway. Two suspects were arrested on Tuesday. ENDS
