The statement also revealed that the 2 men had approached the elephant while carrying sticks in an attempt to ward it off.

The deceased was pronounced dead on the way to Tenggaroh 2 Health Clinic, while the injured victim suffered from head injuries, internal abdominal bleeding, and a fractured hip.

The police are urging the public to report any wild elephant-related problems to the authorities and not to take matters into their own hands, as this could lead to conflicts and potentially escalate into confrontations.
