California man died after his leg was sliced by a bird during a cockfighting match.
Fowl play
Call it murder most fowl.
A California man attending a cockfight was stabbed to death by a bird that had a knife attached to its own limb.
Jose Luis Ochoa, 35, of Lamont, died about two hours after he was injured in neighboring Tulare County on Jan. 30, according to the Kern County coroner.
"I have never seen this type of incident," Sgt. Martin King, a 24-year vet of the sheriff's department, told the Bakersfield Californian.
Ochoa died of accidental "sharp force injury" to his right calf, according to the autopsy.
Onlookers fled when cops arrived at the scene of the fight, King told the local newspaper. Authorities, acting on an anonymous tip, found five dead roosters and other evidence of cockfighting at the location.
No arrests were made at the fight.
Cockfighting is an illegal sport in the U.S.
Metal spurs are often placed on the specially bred birds' legs and they are encouraged to fight until one is incapacitated or killed.
