This time, it was a wild leopard’s turn to storm the village of Prakash Nagar, in Hyderabad in Andhra Pradesh state, and attack several people, including three security guards, before being caught by the forest guards.
Security officers had to use knives, knocks and even guns to subdue the leopard.
Later, the leopard also died at the veterinary center because of its severe injuries.
