Woman trampled to death by wild elephants
 Wild elephants trampled a tribal woman to death at village Dhopajuri in Haluaghat, a frontier upazila of the district on Saturday night.
| Gawd, I hate it when that happens. |
The victim was identified as Alpana Chirang, 25, wife of Abdul Khaleque. Alpana fell victim as a herd of wild elephants from across the Indian border entered the village at around 11:00pm and started ransacking the houses to eat stored paddy, police and locals said.
"C'mon, boyz! Let's go trample somebody and steal all their paddy!"
"Good idea, Jumbo!" |
Alpana's one and a half year-old daughter was also injured. Later the villagers chased the elephants away.
