A 55-year-old man has been gored to death by a bull during a run through a town.
The man was wounded in his left leg and bled to death.
Other people trying to outrun the bulls in the event in Onda, Spain, tried to avert the animal – but with no luck.
The man’s death is the first since bull running events were allowed to start again after Covid-19 lockdowns.
The debate on whether the “sport” should be allowed to continue has divided Spain.
A recent survey found 46.7% of Spaniards were in favour of banning bullfighting, 34.7% were not in favour of the events but did not back a legal ban, and 18.6% believed it should be preserved.
