The rowdy youth damaged the vehicle as they protested the arrest of the area governor and the raid at his home.
While condemning the incident, EACC warned that action would be taken against those who obstruct officers from undertaking their duties.
The governor’s home was raided on Monday as EACC revealed that they were investigating the county boss and other county officials over Ksh1.4 billion tenders.
The governor is accused of influencing the award of the tenders and also getting kickbacks from those companies that won the tenders.
The tenders were for: the rehabilitation and modernisation of Kenyatta Stadium (phase 1A), the construction of the Trans-Nzoia County headquarters offices, and the construction of Tom Mboya Hospital.
