PAMPLONA, Spain (AP) β The Red Cross says four people were gored on the fifth day of the running of the bulls in the Spanish city of Pamplona.
One bull charged into runners packing the narrow streets and gored one deeply in a thigh while cutting another runner’s leg as it lifted its head.
Red Cross spokesman Jose Aldaba said four people were receiving treatment after being gored Saturday while at least five others were recovering from bruises.
Normally six bulls run in the San Fermin festival, but on this occasion one of them turned back and returned to its corral.
The run covers 930-yards (850-meters) from a holding pen on the edge of town to the central bullring where the large animals face matadors and almost certain death in afternoon bullfights.
