Updated: 2006-08-10 17:14 JOHANNESBURG - Lions attacked
and killed two South African security guards outside a game farm, the SAPA news
agency said.
The guards were mauled by three lions early on Wednesday at the farm near
Hennenman in South Africa's Free State province, police said.
The lions - two females and one male - apparently escaped from an enclosure
due to a break in an electric fence.
"The owner of the lions has shot and killed all three," an official with the
Free State's environment department told SAPA.
