HT RoP : Garissa, Kenya (CNN)When the gunmen stormed in, barefoot and barking in Swahili, student Hellen Titus scampered into a closet and stayed quiet.
Read it all here.........Bullets whizzed past as her schoolmates fled in the dark. Gunshots pierced their heads, one after another. In the chaos, Titus decided she was safer in the closet. But her refuge was short lived -- the gunmen who raided her college in the Kenyan town of Garissa on Thursday came for her an hour later.
They led her and dozens of other students into a community room normally used for viewing television. Lie down, the attackers told them, lecturing them on how the Quran forbids the killing of women. They killed the men. Not much later, they turned the weapons on the women. "He was telling him, 'shoot them, shoot them'," she said of a terrorist. Titus survived by smearing a friend's blood on her face and playing dead. "I just rubbed myself, soaked myself with that blood," she said Friday at a makeshift center for evacuated students. "They skipped me."
