Elephant boos couple who poos

TAIPING: It’s quite a tusk to find a place to poo when elephants could be around.
Two colleagues, a man and a woman, found that out the hard way when they were attacked by an elephant on the East-West Expressway near Gerik.

The pair had stopped their car on the highway, some 20km from Gerik, at about 5.30pm on Friday to relieve themselves from stomach aches.
The man, 48, and his 40-year-old female colleague from Jakarta, had got out from their car and gone behind some bushes by the roadside when the pachyderm pounced on them.
The man’s brother, known as Robert, said the victims had been on their way to Penang after a business event in Terengganu, reported The Star.

“He was relieving himself when he saw a ‘rock’ moving.
“He tried to run but was nudged by the elephant’s trunk and fell down,” Robert said at the Taiping Hospital where both victims are being treated.
“The elephant then stepped on him,” he added.
Robert said the woman, shocked by the incident, ran and tripped, injuring herself.
Perak Health Committee chairman Dr Mah Hang Soon, who visited the two on Saturday, said both victims had rib fractures.
“They are still being observed,” he said.
There were no further details on the elephant.
