Evangelist killed by isolated tribe

– An American adventurer and evangelist visiting one of the islands in India’s remote cluster of Andaman and Nicobar has been killed by a tribe of hunter-gatherers who live there isolated from the outside world, police said yesterday.

The North Sentinel Island is home to the Sentinelese community, believed to be the last pre-Neolithic tribe in the world. Police said John Allen Chau, 26, was ferried to the island by fishermen. – Reuters
