Man killed by armed bird at cock fight

Quote:
DELANO, CALIF. ? A man attending a cockfight has died after being stabbed in the leg by a bird that had a knife attached to its limb.
The Kern County coroner says 35-year-old Jose Luis Ochoa was declared dead at a hospital about two hours after he suffered the injury on Jan. 30.
An autopsy concluded Ochoa died of an accidental ?sharp force injury? to his right calf.
Sheriff?s spokesman Ray Pruitt says it?s unclear if a delay in seeking medical attention contributed to Ochoa?s death. Tulare officials are investigating; no arrests were made at the cockfight.
Illegal in the United States, cockfighting is a sport, in which specially bred roosters are put into a ring and encouraged to fight until one is incapacitated or killed.
