JONES, Okla. (KFOR) – An Oklahoma man died Friday after being attacked by two water buffalo he had purchased the day before.
Police in Jones, Oklahoma first got the call that Bradley McMichael had been attacked by the water buffalo at about 8:30 p.m. Friday night. Police said both animals had to be put down due to their aggressive behavior toward people at the scene.
“We take those animals for granted because they’re docile and they are kind and gentle for the most part, but you need to be worried because every moment you’re in that field, you are in danger because the animal could decide otherwise and there’s not much you can do,” McMichael’s friend Matthew Clary said.
