A Northern Irish farmer has been killed in an incident involving a bull.
The County Antrim farmer, named locally as James Gibson from Aughafatten, near Broughshane, was killed on Wednesday (8 December).
An air ambulance arrived on the farm in the morning.
DUP councillor Beth Clyde said: "I really am sorry, I feel for the family's loss, especially at Christmastime.
"It seems to be worse whenever something like this happens at Christmastime.
"It is a devastating loss for the family and for the district."
The Health and Safety Executive for Northern Ireland said inspectors continue to investigate what happened.
The incident follows news of a farmer who received serious injuries after a bull landed on him at a livestock mart in Aberdeenshire on November 28.
