Fans reacted with anger and grief after the beloved character was shockingly dispatched.
An actor whose character was shockingly killed off in the latest episode of Yellowstone has paid tribute to his time on the show.
Denim Richards, 36, played cowboy Colby Mayfield for two seasons of the Paramount Network drama, set on a fictional cattle ranch in Montana run by the ruthless Dutton family.
While not a main character on the show, he was beloved by fans, who reacted with anger and grief after he was killed in the most recent episode.
Viewers watched in horror as Colby was cornered by an angry stallion who had charged into the stables. While another ranch hand ran off to get a rifle to shoot the wild horse, his character could not escape.
Colby was kicked to death by the stallion. His injuries were so severe that his fellow cowboys did not see any need to try and offer medical assistance when they found his body.
