Thirteen people have been injured in today’s running of the bulls, the sixth run in this year’s San Fermines fiesta in Pamplona.
One of the bulls separated from the group and turned to attack the runners. Three of those injured are seriously hurt from being gored, and two of them are described as being in a very serious condition.
The separated bull, with the name of ‘Universal’ was on the run for four long minutes longer than the rest of the group.
The bulls in today’s run came from the Marqués de Domecq stud.
the three most seriously injured are a 48 year old man from Pamplona who was gored in the throat, a Mexican gored in the stomach and a 28 year old German who has serious head injuries.
Friday's run by comparison was fast and without incident.
