A rampaging wild boar sent three people to hospital after charging out of the woods and into a city centre.

Shocking footage shows the huge animal tearing down the middle of a road at full pelt.

In one terrifying moment, a man waking on a pedestrian crossing is sent flying as the beast slams into him at speed, sweeping his legs from under him.

The drama unfolded in Batman on Monday (27 Apr) night, as reported by Need To Know.

Local reports say the animal wandered into the city centre before going on the rampage, attacking people at random and sparking panic among residents.

Three people were injured in separate incidents and taken to hospital after being treated by paramedics.

Their conditions are not yet known.
