• The freak accident occurred on Dec. 17 while Sadanand Meher, 14, was playing sports at the Agalpur High School in Odisha, India, Jam Press reported. Disaster struck after a student threw the sporting spear that ended up piercing the boy’s neck, going in one end and out the other.
• Accompanying footage shows the boy being escorted out of the back of an ambulance by bystanders and medical personnel with the projectile sticking through his throat like a rubber arrow from an old Western film.
