Man found with hoe in head after fight with neighbour
The 74-year-old man was found with the gardening tool still in his head.

In Kasterlee in the province of Antwerp, a 74-year-old man was found in critical condition after an assault with a hoe, that was still in his head.  The public prosecutor suspects that a fight between neighbours got out of hand.

According to the local police officer, the man had been fighting with his 57-year-old neighbour for some time. The neighbour was found dead in his own home and probably killed himself.

An investigation into what exactly happened has been opened.
