An 86-year-old man from the West Midlands is gored by a bull during the final bull run at Pamplona’s San Fermin festival, and is taken to hospital, according to multiple reports. The man is unnamed in the coverage and is described as being from Halesowen. Injuries reported include damage to his elbow, face and hand. A second Brit is also injured in the same event: one report says he is knocked to the ground during the bull run. The incident occurs during the festival’s run when participants attempt to pass through the streets behind the bulls. The Daily Mail characterizes the 86-year-old as the oldest casualty of this year’s San Fermin festival. The Mirror and Daily Mail both describe the man’s goring and the fact that he is rushed to medical care, while also noting that another British person is involved in a separate fall during the run. No further details about the severity of injuries beyond the listed body areas are provided in the excerpts.
