  We use kinematic data of proper motions from Gaia of forty-two globular and
open clusters from Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) to explore the possibility of
them having extragalactic origins. We find the difference between the proper
motions of cluster stars and a surrounding patch of young LMC stars in each
case. We find five globular clusters towards the north-east showing a high
difference (> 0.11 mas/yr, or > 25 km/s). We also examine the statistical
significance of this difference taking into account both measurement errors of
cluster and surrounding stars as well as inherent dispersion of stellar motions
in the local galactic environment. The five globular clusters (NGC 2005, NGC
2210, NGC 1978, Hodge 3 and Hodge 11) have mean proper motions that lie outside
the 85% confidence interval of the mean of surrounding young stars, with a
clear outlier (NGC 1978 outside 99.96% confidence) whose difference cannot be
accounted for by statistical noise. A young cluster (NGC 2100) also fitting the
criteria is ruled out owing to contrary evidence from literature. This
indicates a possible interaction with a dwarf galaxy resulting in the
accretion/disruption in path of the five globular clusters, or possibly one or
more past merger(s) of smaller galaxy/galaxies with LMC from its north-eastern
region. This direction also coincides with the location of Tarantula Nebula,
suggesting the possibility of the interaction event or merger having triggered
its star formation activity.
