It was reported a stray lion from the Queen Elizabeth National park attacked two brothers as they worked in their garden. Elijah Akugizibwe and Francis Tugume were on Thursday October 6th tending to their garden when the lion first attacked the former before injuring the latter who had come to rescue him. 

The brothers raised an alarm which attracted residents and the animal was overpowered and killed.

They were rushed to Fort Portal regional referral hospital where they are recovering from their injuries.
