The jumbos entered a village in Numaligarh area creating panic among the people by trampling one person to death and going on a rampage pulling down the thatch houses last night, the sources said.
The deceased has been identified as Durga Koya.
Forest department personnel rushed to the village and were making efforts to guide the pachyderms to a nearby forest, they said.
With panic prevailing in the area as the elephants were still roaming about freely, the local people have urged the forest department to provide them security from the animals.
