One gored in the first running of bulls

Saturday, 07 July 2007

The first running of bulls was six minutes delayed. The bulls from Dolores Aguirre`s ranch didn`t cause any serious incident. The tame bulls herd began the race too separated from each other in Cuesta Santo Dominngo. The six bulls from Sevilla`s ranch put young in certain akward situations where a boy received a stitch on his gluteus.

At the end of the hill there was already much distance between the first animals and the last ones giving boys a chance to excell. From Mercaderes Street the bulls didn`t attack anybody due to the throng and eventually the herd remained united untill they had arrived in Estafeta Street.

 

There wasn`t any strange incident entering Plaza de Toros despite the huge number of boys who took part in the race. The running of bulls lasted two minutes and  thirty seconds.
