This is the moment an elephant goes on a rampage sending a car flying with its trunk before knocking over a wall as villagers trying to stop it are sent fleeing.

The elephant, named Vadakkumnathan Ganeshan, escaped its handler before it was due to take part in a parade in the village of Kuzhalmannam, the state of Kerala in south-western India.
