Elephants stampede villages of Catholic persecutors

Fr. Sunil De Silva, "Elephants attack in Orissa exactly after one year of persecutions" (Archdiocese of Colombo, India, December 12, 2009). Bizarre.

God says, “Vengeance is Mine—I will repay.” Leave it in His hands—He’ll always take care of it.

It’s especially significant that it is elephants who are the instruments of God’s justice, since these pagans worship an elephant-headed idol. It’s just like the plagues in ancient Egypt, where God turns the Egyptians’ “gods” against them, showing His Lordship over all His creatures. These elephants know their Master and are singing His praises. “O all ye beasts and cattle, bless the Lord: praise and exalt Him above all for ever” (Dan. 3:81).

I couldn't find confirmation for this story. Did anyone else?
