BUDAPEST (Reuters) - The annual pre-Christmas swine slaughter
in a southwestern Hungarian village
came to a shocking end on Saturday after one man died of
electrocution while trying to stun a pig,
whose owner then died of heart attack.
Celebrations at the pig-killing party in Darvaspuszta took
a turn for the worse when an unnamed visiting
Croatian man shocked himself to death while trying to knock
out a pig with a homemade electric pig
stunner, national news agency MTI said.
A local man ended up in hospital with an irregular heart
rhythm after attempting a rescue by trying to
unplug the device.
The accident so upset the pig's owner, he suffered a heart
attack and died.
There was no word on the fate of the pig.
