A California man bled to death after being stabbed in the leg by a rooster at a cock fight. The fighting "spur" attached to the rooster's leg severed a major artery.
LAMONT, Calif. -- The tables were turned at a California cockfight after a man was fatally stabbed in the leg by a sharp blade attached to one of the fighting birds, The Bakersfield Californian reported.
Jose Luis Ochoa, 35, was taken to a local hospital shortly after police responded to a reported cockfight last Sunday in Lamont, Calif., a town nine miles south-southeast of Bakersfield.
An autopsy revealed Wednesday that Ochoa's death was accidental and caused by an injury to his right calf.
"I have never seen this type of incident," Sgt. Martin King, a 24-year veteran, told the paper. But he noted that it was not surprising that Ochoa died since one of his major arteries had likely been severed. "People have been known to bleed out from those injuries if medical attention is not obtained immediately."
