COIMBATORE: In a CCTV footage from Coimbatore's Periyanaickenpalayam, an elephant can be seen entering a house in search of food. The elephant entered the house but soon left without causing any damage.

The footage was reportedly recorded on the night of November 30. Seeing the door of the house open, the calf had entered the house.

A car and two bikes can be seen in the video.

The incident brings back memories of June this year when four people including a 12-year old girl and two women were killed after a wild elephant went on a rampage in a residential area of Coimbatore's Vellalore.

The wild elephant had strayed into the area and attacked the locals when they were sleeping in the front yard of their house. 

A similar incident took place in December last year in Ranchi when residents took shelter on trees to escape an attack by a herd of elephants. A herd of wild elephants has spread panic among village residents, damaging their homes and food items.
