Berserk bull gores master to death

PADANG, West Sumatra: A large bull went berserk while it was
being bathed by its master, whom it attacked and killed on
Monday.

Tasar, 67, a resident of Sungai Sapih subdistrict in Padang
municipality died of severe blood loss resulting from deep wounds
to his abdomen, neck and legs, despite the best efforts of his
neighbors who rushed him to the nearest hospital as soon as the
bull had been restrained.

Kuranji police subprecinct chief Second Insp. Ferri Efendi
said the case was purely one of misadventure.

Witnesses said Tasar had tried to calm the bull, which he
always used to pull his cart, but the beast kept on attacking
him. He was gored by the animal several times in full view of his
neighbors, who were unable to stop the attack.

The neighbors later managed to calm the raging bull by
offering it food, but Tasar was already mortally wounded.

He died later on his way to the Sungai Sapih Hospital. --
