A runner is gored during the San Fermín “running of the bulls” in Pamplona, northern Spain, in an incident reported to include multiple injuries amid chaotic conditions. Several outlets describe a runner being pierced or gored in the face when bulls and accompanying steers charge through the narrow street course packed with spectators and participants. Other reports add that additional people are injured, including at least one man gored in the chest and another in the thigh. The run typically lasts about two and a half minutes, beginning when the animals leave the holding area and ending at the bullring. Coverage describes animals knocking down runners onto cobblestones and stumbling participants causing pile-ups during the course. CBS News reports 13 people are injured in total, including the runner pierced in the face, while other outlets emphasize that many participants are not seriously hurt despite the chaos. Bullfighters then proceed to kill the bulls after the run ends, with some reports noting the festival’s conclusion alongside the injuries. Authorities and organizers are not described in detail in the provided summaries.
