Enraged herd of cows kills 67-year-old man
A 67-year-old man was killed Saturday while walking in Spaubeek in the Dutch-Limburg municipality of Beek when he was attacked by a herd of cows.
The man was walking with his dog through the pasture, which is accessible to hikers through swing gates, when he was suddenly trampled underfoot by the herd of cows. The Dutch sixty-something did not survive that attack. More than likely, the animals wanted to protect their calves from the dog and the man. In fact, after the incident, the herd of cows again showed aggressive behavior toward hikers and the victim's relatives who came to the spot to mourn.
The municipality has since closed the pasture in question.
