Pig kills boy

By Our Staff Reporter

NEW DELHI : A three-year-old boy was gored to death by a pig at Samaipur Badli in North-West Delhi on Tuesday. The police have arrested the owner of the pig.

The incident took place around noon when Ajay, son of a labourer, Ashok Yadav, was playing outside his Nanglipoona Extension house.

It is learnt that the pig pounced on Ajay and sank its teeth into his neck.

Ajay died on the spot. Before passers-by could scare the pig away, it had eaten portions of the child's neck and chest.
