Oryx kills American
STAFF REPORTER

An American visitor to Namibia died at a farm in the Gobabis area after he was gored by an oryx on Thursday.

The gemsbok attacked the 65-year-old American between 08h00 and 09h00 on Thursday, the Namibian Police reported on Friday.

A Police spokesperson, Sergeant Stephan Nuuyi, added yesterday that it was reported that the man had set out on a walk with the aim to take some photographs earlier that morning.

He apparently encountered the gemsbok, got too close to the animal, and was attacked and killed.

The incident happened at farm Avitra along the Gobabis-Nina road, the Police reported.
