A Bird Kills A Man In A Cockfight

An angry bird had decided that he had enough. Jose Luis Ochoa, 35, of Lamont, California, was declared dead at a hospital about two hours after he was injured in Tulare County on January 30th, the Kern County coroner said. An autopsy concluded Ochoa died of an accidental “sharp force injury” to his right calf.

Authorities say Ochoa got too close during the fight and got sliced on the leg from a blade attached to the roosters leg. “I have never seen this type of incident,” Sgt Martin King, a 24-year veteran of the sheriff’s department, told the Bakersfield Californian.

King told the newspaper, that when the police arrived at the scene, they found five dead roosters and evidence of a cockring. In the past, Ochoa paid a fine for owning and training an animal to fight. I guess this time he paid a dear price for cockfighting, he paid with his life. What goes around comes around. I guess, in this case it's true.
