A 60 year old United States man is among the three more seriously injured
Four people have been gored in the San Fermines bullrun this morning – and one of them has now died.
All the problems were caused by a bull from the Jandilla stud in the run today, the fourth of the year.
The brown bull, with number 106 and named ‘Capuchino’ has proved to be one of the most dangerous in the history of the runs, leaving the group and attacking the runners in the area of the run known as Telefónica.
The Red Cross said initially that one person was critical after suffering an arterial haemorrhage after being gored in the neck. The person died shortly after, at 8,45am when undergoing surgery in the Virgen del Camino hospital.
Shortly after 12 noon his identity had been confirmed to be that of 27 year old Daniel Jimeno Romero from Álcala de Henares, near Madrid. He was identified in the hospital by his girlfriend and sister.
A 60 year old United States man is among the three seriously injured. He is reported to have head injuries.
There have now been 15 deaths in the history of the San Fermines bull runs.
The last previous death was of a local man, Fermín Etxeberria who died in 2003 after hitting his head, and before that it was a 22 year old United States man, Matthew Peter Tasio in 1995 who was gored in the stomach.
