LONDON — A man died Saturday after he entered the tiger enclosure at a wildlife park in northern England and was attacked by one of the animals, police said.
Emergency medical personnel responded to the Yorkshire Wildlife Park near the city of Doncaster after the incident was reported at about 1:35 p.m., but the victim died at the scene, South Yorkshire Police said in a statement.
The tiger was not injured and remained inside the enclosure during the incident, the force said.
The wildlife park was evacuated after the attack, and officers remained at the scene Saturday night as they investigated.
“We are working closely with the authorities to ascertain exactly what happened,”
