05 Nov 2020

A 37-year-old woman sustained serious injuries from an elephant attack at Tsutsubega cattle post in the outskirts of Maun.

Maun police station commander, Superintendent Chenamo Orateng, said the woman left her home on Monday morning, but did not return.

She was found on Tuesday (November 3) with serious injuries after being reported missing to the police.

He said the woman was saved by sheer luck because the elephant might have lost sight of her during the attack.

According to Supt Orateng, the woman reportedly shouted for help since she could not walk due to injuries she sustained.

Supt Orateng said some people heard her and came to her rescue. She was taken to Letsholathebe Memorial Hospital where she is recovering. ENDS
