From the San Francisco Chronicle: Oregon authorities are investigating how a farmer was eaten by his hogs.
Terry Vance Garner,
69, never returned after he set out to feed his animals last Wednesday
on his farm near the Oregon coast, the Coos County district attorney
said Monday.
A
family member found Garner's dentures and pieces of his body in the hog
enclosure several hours later, but most of his remains had been
consumed, District Attorney Paul Frasier said. Several of the hogs weighed 700 pounds or more.
It's
possible Garner had a medical emergency, such as a heart attack, or was
knocked over by the animals, then killed and eaten, Frasier said,
adding that at least one hog had previously bitten Garner.
The possibility of foul play is being investigated as well.
"For
all we know, it was a horrific accident, but it's so doggone weird that
we have to look at all possibilities," Frasier told The Register-Guard.
