A cattle herder known as Alfred died after being attacked by a cow in the Luuka district. The incident happened in Bulike village while he was watering the animals. Witnesses say the cow grew agitated and charged him, goring him in the abdomen before trampling him. He was pronounced dead at a local health center.
Alfred had worked in the area for about four years, caring for roughly fifty head of cattle owned by multiple farmers. His payment came in the form of calves, and he had accumulated four of his own. Local leaders described him as a skilled and trusted herdsman who introduced silage feeding to other farmers. Police confirmed the event and stated community leaders are arranging a burial.
