DELANO, Calif. -- A Central California man who was at a cockfight died after being stabbed in the leg by a bird that had a knife attached to its own limb, officials confirmed Monday.

Jose Luis Ochoa, 35, of Lamont, was declared dead at a hospital about two hours after he was injured in neighboring Tulare County on Jan. 30, the Kern County coroner said.

An autopsy concluded Ochoa died of an accidental "sharp force injury" to his right calf.

Sheriff's spokesman Ray Pruitt said it was unclear if a delay in seeking medical attention contributed to Ochoa's death.

I guess he got too cocky.

Too much of a tough guy to seek medical attention immediately? That's what you get for trying to prove you aren't chicken.

 

[Ennui]

Seems like a poultry injury to me. I'm surprised he died.

 

[Eejit]

Perhaps the bird was trained to attack and kill him, it might not be an accident, but fowl play!

 

[Warped]

Why didn't the chicken cross the road?

Yeah, I think the guy is a total bird brain.

It all sounds hugely eggaggerated to me.

He probably didn't seek immediate medical attention beakcause he was afraid of getting in trouble for having a cockfight.

Death penalty for the chicken :-(

That guy must have been fairly eggcentric to be betting on a cockfight. I bet fowl language was used.

Sounds like the cockfight really was a poorly hatched plan if the cops showed up.

 

[Tyguy]

Why was the bird able to freely stab people, unfettered?

He probably didn't seek immediate medical attention beakcause he was afraid of getting in trouble for having a cockfight.

Yeah he wouldn't want to be cooped up in a cell for the rest of his life. He's too used to being free range.

Sounds like the cockfight really was a poorly hatched plan if the cops showed up.

But it doesn't sound like he was a flight risk.
