LUCKNOW – Several people were injured after a leopard entered a local court in Ghaziabad city of northern Indian state of Uttar Pradesh.
Indian media reports said the big cat attacked people at noon in districts courts, adding that several others sustained injuries during a stampede. A video of the incident has gone viral on social media.
