Coroner: Pa. man killed by pet bull

WERNERSVILLE, Pa. (AP) — Authorities say a man is dead after being attacked by one of his pet bulls.

The Berks County coroner’s office says 52-year-old Ricky Weinhold died Saturday after being attacked by a bull on a farm where he leased barn space in Wernersville, about 60 miles northwest of Philadelphia.

Chief Deputy Coroner Charles E. Sweitzer Jr. says all of Weinhold’s injuries appear to have been inflicted by a bull’s head and hooves.

Authorities say Weinhold’s body was discovered by the son of the farm’s owner on Sunday, which would have been his 53rd birthday.

Deputy Coroner Terri Straka says the Reinholds man had been injured by one of the animals previously. Authorities suspect that the bull attacked him Sunday.
