Police say a lion attacked people at a farmhouse in Johar Town, Lahore. Two children were badly hurt and quickly taken to Jinnah Hospital. Doctors say their condition is very serious, and they are trying hard to save them.
A wildlife team was sent to the farmhouse right after the attack. Everyone at the farmhouse was removed for safety.
Police say the lion escaped because the cage or enclosure was not properly locked. That’s how the lion got out and attacked people.
