Video:Elephants Electrocuted In Drunk Rampage

elephants electrocuted in drunk rampage

they had found rice beer in an indian village; incident reflects loss of habitat.

gauhati, india - six asiatic wild elephants were electrocuted as they went berserk after drinking rice beer in india's remote northeast, a wildlife official said tuesday.

nearly 40 elephants came to a village on friday looking for food. some found beer, which farmers ferment and keep in plastic and tin drums in their huts, said sunil kumar, a state wildlife official.

they got drunk, uprooted a utility pole carrying power lines and were electrocuted in chandan nukat, a village nearly 150 miles west of shillong, the capital of meghalaya state, kumar said.

"there would have been more casualties had the villagers not chased them away," said dipu mark, a local conservationist.

the elephants are known to have a taste for rice beer brewed by tribal communities in india's northeast. four wild elephants died in similar circumstances in the region three years ago.

india's northeast accounts for the world's largest concentration of wild asiatic elephants with the states of assam and meghalaya alone estimated to have 7,000 of them.

"it's great to have such a huge number of elephants, but the increasing man-elephant conflict following the shrinkage in their habitat due to the growing human population is giving us nightmares," said pradyut bordoloi, a former forest and environment minister for assam.

Video:Texas Pastor Electrocuted During Baptism

texas pastor electrocuted during baptism

waco, texas - a pastor performing a baptism was electrocuted inside his church sunday morning after adjusting a nearby microphone while standing in water, a church employee said.

the rev. kyle lake, 33, was stepping into the baptistery as he reached out for the microphone, which produced an electric shock, said university baptist church community pastor ben dudley.

water in a baptistery usually reaches above the waist, said byron weathersbee, interim university chaplain at baylor university.

lake was pronounced dead at hillcrest baptist medical center, nursing supervisor pat mahl said. the woman being baptized apparently had not stepped into the water and was not seriously injured.

pastors at university baptist church routinely use a microphone during baptisms, said jamie dudley, the wife of ben dudley and a business administrator at the church.

"he was grabbing the microphone so everyone could hear," she said. "it's the only way you can be loud enough."

about 800 people attended the morning service, which was larger than normal because it was homecoming weekend at nearby baylor university, dudley said.
