PORTLAND, Ore. (AP) - Authorities in Oregon say a 66-year-old man has been gored to death by a 1,200-pound bull. The Clackamas County Sheriff's office says Aurgliano Paulino Martinez-Sierra was attacked Sunday by the 3-year-old bull when he went to feed farm animals at his daughter's Oregon City home. It says the animal was later shot and killed by a SWAT member. Officials say his family became concerned after he was gone for about 45 minutes, and a family member who went to search for him found the body with "obvious signs of being brutally attacked." They say the bull was killed after it became aggressive with emergency personnel who responded at the home and charged at a neighbor who was helping to distract it.
