Two men have escaped a rogue leopard attack after the animal burst right into a tiny liquor store on Sunday morning.<\/p>\n

The large cat wandered into Todaraisingh town in Rajasthan, India, on July 19, and started attacking locals.<\/p>\n

One, an area forest ranger volunteer, was investigating reports the leopard had been spotted in bushes at 8:45am when the animal attacked him.<\/p>\n

The leopard then travelled into the town before making its way inside a liquor store and lunging on the two men inside.<\/p>\n

Terrifying footage captured the attack, by which 25-year-old salesman Sanjay Gurjar manages to flee the large cat\u2019s claws.<\/p>\n

He may be seen wrestling away from the leopard, before making a dive over a table the second he’s released from its clutches.<\/p>\n

The leopard continued to wander across the store before taking refuge under a table, almost knocking over a towering shelf of bottles because it did so.<\/p>\n

Gurjar was reportedly in a position to lock the lost cat contained in the shop, stopping it from hurting anyone else.<\/p>\n

A rescue team reached Todaraisingh at around 2pm and launched an operation to securely capture the leopard.<\/p>\n

All three attack victims were taken to hospital, with the ranger volunteer treated and discharged while the 2 shop employees were transferred to a different facility for further treatment.<\/p>\n

The attack comes days after an elderly man was killed in his sleep by a leopard, 400 miles away in Uttar Pradesh, India.<\/p>\n

Ram Yadav, 88, had been asleep on his veranda when the wild cat launched at him before dragging him towards the woods.<\/p>\n

The person\u2019s family rushed out armed with weapons, scaring off the leopard and calling emergency services for Yadav.<\/p>\n

He had suffered severe injuries, including to his neck, and was pronounced dead on his arrival in hospital.<\/p>\n
