Thiruvananthapuram: A man was shot dead and another one was injured while hunting a wild boar in Kerala. The guy was found dead in a paddy field in Vandiyambatta near Kambalakkad in this high range area, allegedly in pursuit of a wild boar. According to authorities, the dead has been identified as Jayan (36), a resident of Kottathara.
Sharun, a relative of the deceased, was critically hurt in the gunfire and has been admitted to the Kozhikode Medical College Hospital. The two were injured in the gunshot while chasing away a wild pig that had wandered into the field.
Only after the autopsy and investigation, Wayanad SP Aravind Sukumar informed that they will have clarity on the situation.
