A tourist and her baby were trampled to death by a rampaging elephant in Kenya.

American Sharon Brown, 39, was carrying her one-year-old daughter on a nature trail when the animal appeared.

Melia van Laar, owner of the Castle Forest Lodge, where the family was staying, said they were walking with a guide about a mile from the lodge when the elephant emerged from the bush at full speed on Monday.
