In a bizarre yet nerve-wracking turn of events, a late-night encounter between man and beast turned into an unplanned 100-meter dash—each in opposite directions. The incident occurred around 10 PM outside the Aadhar Cement Factory in Patapur village, Dungarpur, Gujarat’s Junagadh district, where lions roam around like confused night shift workers. A factory staffer, thinking it was just another mundane walk out the gate, came face-to-face with a full-grown lion—who, by the looks of it, seemed equally shocked to see a human casually step into its path.
