A 21-year-old man was trampled to death by a herd of elephants in Jharkhand’s Latehar district, a forest official said on Monday.
The incident occurred at Bhaisadon village under Balumath Police Station limits on Sunday night when Aryan Lohra went outside his home to
relieve himself, he said.
“A herd of 10-12 elephants was passing through the area on Sunday night when he was out to relieve himself. The man could not see the approaching elephants due to the darkness and was trampled by them,” Balumath forest ranger Nand Kumar Mehta said.
