A
youth was attacked by a bear in the jungles of Kafer today. According to the
information received, the youth Pemba Sherpa (aged 33) had gone to the Gumpa
Dara, Kafer at around 12 noon to check the water connection pipe. While Sherpa
was busy checking the connection a bear out of nowhere attacked him. During the
tussle with the bear for around half an hour Sherpa incurred head injuries. The
Khukri which Sherpa was carrying however helped Sherpa save his life from the
bear. In the meanwhile, the locals of the surrounding area overheard Sherpa’s
screams and ran towards the jungle for his rescue. By the time the locals
reached the spot the bear managed to flee.
At
present, Sherpa is receiving medical treatment at the Kalimpong Sub Divisional
hospital.
