A video of an elephant going on a rampage in West Bengal’s Hooghly district has gone viral on the internet. The incident seems to have been captured on a CCTV camera installed outside a shop or residence in the area.
The clip shared on Twitter by @Fun_Viral_Vids opens to show people running on the street from something and trying to find a shelter for themselves.
