A second man has died after three people were attacked by a water buffalo in Monmouthshire

The 19-year-old, named locally as Peter Jump, died from "critical injuries" he sustained in the attack in Monmouthshire on 5 May, police said.

Peter was rushed to hospital in a critical condition following the incident in Gwehelog, but died the following day.

Police only confirmed the death on Wednesday.

A 57-year-old man, believed to be his father Jon Jump, was pronounced dead at the scene.

A 22-year-old woman, said to be Peter's sister Isabel, was hospitalised with a leg injury but has since recovered.

The water buffalo has since been put down.
