IWADE, Japan, Dec. 15 (UPI) -- Police says hunters shot and killed a wild boar after it attacked four people in a residential area of Iwade, Japan.
The four, who suffered cuts and bruises but were not seriously injured, included a 14-year-old boy who was knocked off his bike and his 11-year-old brother, who was bit on the hand, Kyodo news agency reported Monday.
The boar also rammed a 15-year-old boy and a 40-year-old man before hunters killed it.
Boars, on several occasion, have damaged crops in the area this year, but it is rare for them to venture into residential areas, police said.
