Bagdogra forest guard went berserk and killed one and injured another

Police are on the hunt to arrest a Bagdogra range forest guard, accused of killing an innocent tribal man and grievously wounding an aged cowboy in a feat of rage at Panighata area under Mirik police station. Police today said they have set up a camp after forest guard Santa Kumar Tamang went berserk and killed his neighbour Augustus Toppo and seriously injured Nar Bhadur Thapa, who was herding cows and goats in nearby jungle on Monday. Police believe that Tamang was unwilling to have his daughter marriage after she fell love with his colleague Subol Rai's son, all the residents of Manchakhola of Panighata block near Naxalbari. As the final talks on fixing a date for marriage were on Monday in their residence, Tamang got mentally upset and took a sharp weapon and went out hacking to death Toppo and injured Thapa, who was now admitted to North Bengal Medical College and Hospital with serious wounds. After committing the crimes, he went hiding creating panic among the neighbours. Police from Mirik, Kurseong and Naxalbari began a manhunt and set up a police camp to instill confidence among the residents. UNI XC PC SS SS1213 NNNN
