The incident occurred just hours after the funeral of a 65-year-old man slain by an elephant in Ngomano Athii, a nearby village.

Local leaders, led by Francis Mulwa, Mtito Andei Ward MCA, have accused KWS of neglecting to preserve the neighboring Tsavo West and East parks, causing farmers to suffer losses and anguish.
