Drunken elephants trample three to death
Guwahati - Drunken wild elephants trampled to death three people and injured two in a tribal village in India's north-eastern state of Assam, wildlife officials said on Wednesday.

A herd of a dozen elephants entered the village of Marongi on Tuesday and ran amok after taking long swills of rice beer brewing in casks outside the homes of the tribal people.

"The elephants, after entering the village first guzzled locally made rice beer kept in drums and then went on a rampage killing three people, including a woman," a forest official said.

The two people hurt suffered multiple injuries.
