The news just broke that three civilians and one police officer in Berlin suffered noteworthy injuries after coming face to face with a wild boar which somehow reached the conclusion that exploring one of the city's residential areas might not be such a bad idea.

Sources say that the three civilians injured by this wild boar are a 74-year-old man and two women. One of these women is 74 years old, while the other is only 24.

Apparently, the man got bitten by his back and one of his legs, the elderly woman got knocked down and injured her hip, and the younger woman also ended up being bitten.

It was the police officer who succeeded in killing this animal by shooting it several times, yet unfortunately, he was also injured during his attempt to tackle the wild boar.

Thus, he suffered a cut to one of his legs.

Berlin's residents claim that they are quite used to sharing some of their residential areas with wild boars, and that these animals rarely cause any big problems.
