A stray dog carrying a severed human arm opened a can of worms near Chimpaganahalli, near Tumakuru district, as a mutilated human body was found by the police in this Karnataka district.
A scene of horror unfolded here on Thursday morning after a stray dog emerged from the bushes carrying a severed human arm in its mouth, sending chills to a passerby.
As the man stood frozen in disbelief, the dog casually crossed the road between Koratagere and Kolala with the mingled limb dangling from its jaws, reported The Times of India.
