Elephant falls then flees after being hit by Porsche Cayenne, driver unhurt

Investigations find man did not have time to avoid animal which was on the road around 10.15pm last night

10:58 AM MYT

 

KUALA TERENGGANU – A man escaped unhurt after the vehicle he was driving crashed into an elephant in Kg Kolam, Setiu, near here, last night. 

Setiu police chief Afandi Husin said that the driver, Sharul Azma Che Samaon, 42, a company manager, escaped unhurt. 

However, his Porsche Cayenne’s windscreen, bumpers and lights were damaged in the incident, in addition to dents in the bonnet and fenders.  

He said that police received a call regarding the incident at about 10.15pm. 

“Preliminary investigations found that the accident is believed to have occurred while the victim was travelling from Rhu 10 to Lembah Bidong.

“Upon arrival at the location of the incident at KM45, Kg Kolam on Jalan Kuala Terengganu-Kg Raja, he did not have time to avoid the animal on the road,” he said, in a statement. 

Afandi said that the elephant, which was seen roaming in the area at about 6.30pm yesterday, was reported to have been injured in the leg, and fell at the scene before fleeing into the nearby forest about 10 minutes later.  

“The Besut Wildlife and National Parks (Perhilitan) has been informed for further action. 

“Efforts to locate the elephant are still being carried out by nine members of Besut Perhilitan with the help of the public. The elephant is believed to be heading to Bukit Putera, Setiu,” he said. 

Meanwhile, the state’s Agriculture, Agro-Based Industry and Rural Development Committee chairman, Dr Azman Ibrahim, in a Facebook post, said that the elephant had been under the observation of state Perhilitan for the past few days.

It was found wandering around Setiu and was in the process of being caught and relocated. – March 16, 2024
