A 29-year-old American researcher has been killed in Zambia after she was trampled by an elephant.

The woman, named by local media as Margarita Metallinou, was working in the Kafue National Park in central Zambia with two male colleagues when the accident happened at around 1.30pm last Tuesday.

Police said that the three were unaccompanied by game rangers. Lombe Kamukoshi, police commissioner for Zambia's Central Province, said Dr Metallinou saw the animal and screamed, alerting her colleagues who managed to run away as it charged.
