Man died with ‘massive bleeding’ while whispering ‘rooster’ after being attacked by aggressive bird at home in Ireland.

The 67-year-old, formerly from The Hague, Netherlands, suffered a heart attack after the bird drove its spur into his leg, causing him to lose litres of blood.

Police officers and his daughter Virginia Guinan found Mr Kraus lying in a pool of blood due to the wound on the back of his leg.

His lodger said he was able to whisper the word ‘rooster’ as he lost and regained consciousness.
