DELANO (AP) — February 7, 2011 4:35 PM. A California man attending a cockfight has died after being stabbed in the leg by a bird that had a knife attached to its own limb.
An autopsy concluded Ochoa died of an accidental “sharp force injury” to his right calf.
Sheriff’s spokesman Ray Pruitt says it’s unclear if a delay in seeking medical attention contributed to Ochoa’s death. Tulare officials are investigating, and no arrests were made at the cockfight.
Cockfighting is a sport, illegal in the United States, in which specially bred roosters are put into a ring and encouraged to fight until one is incapacitated or killed.

Wow how to go Mr. Rooster.
I hope the rooster was OK.
Stupid is as stupid dies
Next,the rooster will be fighting”LITTLE JERRY SEINFELD” for the World Championship! Place your bets! As for the dead Mexican,somewhere in Hell,I’m sure that Satan has him being clawed to death over and over,again! Good riddence! 13 million,9 hundred and 99 thousand,9 hundred and 99 Illegal law breakers to go!
Amen.
He is currently hiding in a sanctuary city. I believe it is San Francisco. Way to go Mr rooster!

“Here they come to snuff the rooster, aww yeah”
I hope the poor Rooster was donated to a farm santuary….
After he does Good Morning America, an Oprah and of course an evaluation on Dr Phil, to make sure he is stable enough to be a part of society.
Nope. They euthanize them.
That’s Karma and I don’t feel a bit sad about it. bleep happens..
Why SHOULD you feel sad? It was just some Mexican….right?
Right!!!
No Jose, It was a person that fights dumb animals for enjoyment and profit.
Pinche pindejo
exactly.
Just some Mexican indulging in an illegal bloodsport, who got what he deserved. Yeah. If Michael Vick or some dumb white meth junkie had his throat ripped out by a pit bull he trained to kill or die for his entertainment, I’d cheer the dog, too. It’s not a race thing, it’s a torturing animals for fun is f’ed up thing.
Nice try dodging the issue though.
Don’t make this about race Carlos. Kevin is just a moron that values the life of chickens over that of a human. I’m sure Kevin only eats free range chickens that are terminated in the most humane way possible…..by being fed delicious poisoned grain while listening to Barbara Streisand. That or he’s a dirty hippie. Either way, save your race card for those that enter the country illegally.
Thanks Carlos for putting a positive ‘spin’ on a horrific story.
Right
Actually, Carlos, it was some sick, twisted savage beast who enjoys torturing innocent animals. And if you think this is a sport, you’re just as sick and twisted and savage as the dead guy. He got exactly what he deserved. I just wish he’d got it sooner.
Michael Vick got jail time. Oh, that’s right, it was a dog. Totally different!
I’m totally with you, Kevin. It’s isn’t about race at all, as some bums here have claimed. It’s about animal abuse. the creep got what he deserved. I’d say the same about anybody who engaged in this barbarism, regardless of nationality.
Lets get that rooster and his entire family to our southern boarder NOW
Hey Dman, it’s spelled BORDER. A boarder is someone that you have living with you.
So the chicken is living with him till he can sneak across the Arizona border
If that’s not justice I don’t know what is..
I feel that way when the bull gores the matador. Yeah!!!!
BAAAA HAAAA HAAAA HAAAA HAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
hahhaahaahaa. will the d.a. press charges against the……..chicken?
is this another chicken joke.
i love it
has a composit sketch been given on the suspected……feather face?
that lil’ clucker may be headed for the border……
he was a human being, so i won’t say he deserved it, as no one does, not even an animal.. may this teach people to be kinder to all.. on the other hand, this is a sign of some sort, a few weeks ago a man was shot by a fox he had injured with the same weapon, now this.. STOP ANIMAL CRUELTY!!
I disagree. If you as a “human being” get your sick thrills from watching 2 birds with blades on their legs peck and slice each other to death…or for that matter fight pit bulls or repeatedly stab a bull to death in a ring where it has no chance then you do deserve what you get, I don’t really think that we need “human beings” like that around.
Every human civilization has had animal sport at one point or another. I agree it’s a throwback, but don’t be so high and mighty. If your only positive trait is a lack of negative traits, I’m not impressed. It’s easy to criticize a different culture, but what sort of culture values a rooster more than a man? Talk about callous.
Chuck is right, I could say self righteous arrogant condescending people like Mikey shouldn’t be allowed to live; but then I would like Mikey
I agree with Mikey. The rooster doesn’t have a choice. It is following it’s nature, which is being manipulated when it is locked into a small space with another rooster. It doesn’t seek fame or fortune or thrills. On the other hand, the people watching and participating in the sport have a choice. And their choice is to defile innocent creatures not for food, labor, or some other utility-deriving use, but to get their sick thrills from it.
I agree with you, Mikey. Good riddance to human rubbish.
A LOT of “human beings” deserve a LOT more than they get.
Spot on Rooster!
Don’t say “spot on”.
but maybe he was a spotted rooster, ya never know
This is something that plagues the Latino community. I’m sure there were probably some low life non Latino’s there as well, but when they over this “machismo” thing that they have and realize that these birds have feeling and suffer while they get their eye pecked out or what ever happens then the world and their community will have taken one step forward into the 21st century. Stop that stuff now!
“Latino community…” It’s like saying…That Black community needs to stop with that dog fighting. Moron.
Well, they do. Moron.
Well this is one bird that didn’t suffer….
he deserves an extra hen tonight
Oops Karma!
How is the rooster doing?
Funny for too many reasons and sad for the same ones. Sometimes, you get what you aren’t looking for but you get it anyway.
Learn or die!
Huh? You may need to try that one again.
Oh….I think onc is enough.
sorry people the rooster got justice by KFC will be at a plate tonight or at a combo please attend the service u can get part of the soul if u get one of the offer’s.please bring ur coupon lol jajajajaj
Three cheers for the rooster!!
Ha! ha! People that attend such a cruel event like this deserve to die…yes die. A picture of this rooster should be placed in the Getty Museum.
Chickens should have their maimed carcases picked apart and eaten. they shouldn’t be fighting like that, thats mean.
I’m picking apart some yard-bird carcass as we…..mmmmm….speak.
We should kill Don King then!
Right. Just like ignorant feminists should be forced to live in Muslim countries. Fair trade in my opinion. One note of caution…..I wouldn’t go blaring your bootlegged Lilith fair cd over there. That is likely punishable by death….stoning most likely.
I want to know why if it was an illegal event noone was arrested. That’s why this sort of stuff continues to happen, nothing is done even when they get caught. And YAY for that rooster..I hope he gets to go somewhere nice and retire now.
That rooster needs to retire to my frying pan.
Meat is murder.
Tasty murder.
Right on right on…
Glad the rooster won.
Good for the rooster.that guy deserved it
That guy won’t be fighting any more chickens where he’s going….
Well, the INS probably should have deported Jose the illegal alien a long time ago. Nonetheless, I suppose the rooster made it impossible for him to illegally re-enter the country, so score one for the USA!
I’m sorry, I missed it. Where in the piece did it say that Jose was an illegal alien?
Oh, I see.Because of his Spanish name, he MUST have been an illegal.
Typical ignorant, racist stereotyping.
May the rooster live a long and enjoyable life.
YEAH HE GOT DEPORTED ALRIGHT
Small loss…….Hope the Rooster survived to take out more of these bozos…!
Well what comes around goes around. Good for that rooster. Now let’s get Vick into a dog ring and maybe a few Japanese into the dolphin pool.
Oh well, an eye for an eye
Rooster 1—Jose 0!!! Paybacks are hell!
I feel NO sadness for someone killed by the cruelty he himself inflicted. Good riddance. hopefully this will continue to happen!!!
You mess with the chicken, you’re gonna get the blade.
I cut chew mang!!!
I was going to leave a comment, but nothing I would say could beat these!
No sadness at all.
Did you feel sadness when 100,000 Haitians died in the earthquake last year?
what’s that got to do with chickens
I think what Carlos is saying is that hatians love chicken. I find this stereotype to be untrue…..everyone loves chicken…except for Amy Jacobson.
I hope the rooster gets sanctuary in Arizona!
Yay Rooster!
My money is on the rooster.
Rosters: 1 – 0
Idiots: 0 – 1 (Lifetime)
C’mon people, Karma and irony aside, it was a CHICKEN ! ! !
I do feel sad for the man who died. But in no way to I condone a senseless ‘sport’ that forces animals to suffer for the enjoyment of people.
So the Rooster won this one – but who exactly is paying for the hospital expenses? Probably the taxpayers.
Last time I checked, dead people don’t get hospital expenses. Who paid for your reading lessons? No child left behind?
The account says he died at the hospital. Hospitals charge money. Taxpayers get stuck with the bill.
For the mexican or the chicken??
Karma
Remember that Alice in Chains song? “Snuff the Rooster”
Can you say, “Darwin Award?”
Im loving the el pollo loco add on the right
What goes around………
Booyah! Respect teh Cawk!
/I say.
It’s a joke son, a joke.
Animals deserve better than this, people like this get what they deserve.
I just wish Michale Vick had received a piece of dog justice.
If it’s any consolation, Michael Vick has to spend about half of every year for the foreseeable future in Philadelphia, which is quite honestly a fate worse than dying at the fangs of a rabid dog.
BAN ALL ROOSTERS, THEY KILL PEOPLE.
“…died of an accidental “sharp force injury” to his right calf”
The massive loss of blood probably didn’t help either.
No relation BTW.
Great point too Johnny!
I pity the man in that he would have been of such low moral character that he would attend such an appalling spectacle, but I I feel nothing for his death. He got what he deserved and no less.
Now imagine she’s white…
- A Time to Kill (1996)
don’t waste chickens like that put them in the frying pan,I don’t like bruised meat
Nooooo
Put them on Border Patrol……..
Poetic justice.
Damn beans are not only committing animal cruelty, they’re breaking our laws on top of it.
Serves the jerks right. Sorry a person died however it’s irony at it’s best.
And watch… not a person arrested yet if it were a couple of legal’s smokin a joint they’d be cuffed and arrested.
Nobody was arrested? Because it was a Mexican crowd no doubt.
Let’s stop beating about the bush – if you know anything about Hispanics you know that even if they have the money they rarely seek medical attention for anything. If this idiot would have gone to a hospital right after the cut he would have lived but no…the pride of this macho hispanic man said “im okay”…well that’s what you get moron. And I’m half hispanic.
Then I am all for hispanic pride……..
Best news I’ve heard all day.
Anonymity is a shield for closet racists.
None of us have ANYTHING against Chickens
Think about it. The guy will have to spend eternity in Limbo. No way he can show up in Heaven or Hell and admit he was killed by a chicken!
gotta love it………
Cool..
Rooster revenge
I hope he fries!
What I’m shocked about is that this guy bled out from a stab wound to the calf! Any idiot with 15 mins of first aid training could have saved this guy by putting a touriquet on his leg and got him to the nearest hospital. Hell, sufficient pressure, a makeshift bandage and dressing with elevation above his heart should have been enough. to keep him stable enough for medical personnel to arrive.
Sorry, but want to point out a correction in the story. This individual was identified as a man but the story seems to indicate otherwise.
You’re right about that…
stupid, illegal, horrific sport…idiot deserved it…
All you people really need to get a hobby.
It seems odd that someone would die from a leg-wound. Maybe there was an accomplice, or more to the story we’re not being told.
Cut an artery. Legs have them, you know…
I’m sure they killed the poor rooster for revenge….They call me a sport?
poetic justice
Ole!
The man had no problem getting his jollies watching two animals slaughter each other. All that was on his mind was that the rooster he bet on, wins. Not a thought to what was happening to these two poor dumb roosters. In a word, disgusting. I hate to see any human suffer as well, no matter what ignorant thing they did. However, having said that – there seems to be a little poetic justice to this story….. Don, St Charles, Missouri
It’s a start! Let’s all support a Rooster Revolution! Hasta luego mojados!
What kind of Moron gets “capped” by a chicken. Someone needs to call Eric Holder now. It was a hate crime.
Awesome! I wish this would happen more often.
I feel a movie coming on. ( When Chickens Attack!!!!!)
People are created in God’s image.
How politically incorrect to state, I know.
Those who are cheering on the death of a man need to take a step back from the keyboard and remind themselves how precious humankind is… yes, even cruel humans, and how they are more valuable than other species.
You’ve got to be kidding. In what way did this “cruel human” show he was more valuable than a member of another species?
There are garden-variety slugs that have shown more moral character than this dude.
You need a reality check, amigo.
Ole Red the Rooster was arrested and charged with murder and will be sent to the nearest Chicken farm where he will be sentenced to 20 bird years and hard labor for killing a Mexican who was gambling illegally and only trying to make money to feed his family. Oh the Horror!
Just cleaning up the gene pool.
Mexican or not, I feel sorry for this poor, stupid moron. When are these people going to learn? You torture an innocent creature, you risk getting what you deserve. It was obviously a sort of divine justice. They should make this story into a film or a cartoon or something and broadcast it all over Mexico and Southern California. Perhaps it would serve as a wake-up call to these idiots everywhere before they risk hurting more animals or getting themselves killed by wayward, knife-wielding roosters.
Bring back dog fighting as in Jack London’s Call of the Wild!
Oh get stuffed you sanctimonious lout……lord protect you….gag….
