Bull attack man died from multiple injuries

Roger Freeman, 63, and his wife, Glenis, were attacked by the animal as they walked along a public footpath through a livestock field in Stanton-on-Soar, Nottinghamshire, on Friday.

Mr Freeman was pronounced dead at the scene.

His 67-year-old wife managed to get to the nearby road, where she flagged down a passing woman motorist who contacted emergency services.

She remains in a critical but stable condition in hospital, a Nottinghamshire Police spokesman said.

The couple, from Glen Parva, Leicestershire, were walking from a hotel in the city, where they had stayed overnight after going to the theatre, when the bull attacked. The animal has since been put down.

An inquest into Mr Freeman's death will be opened at Nottingham Coroner's Court on Thursday.
