  • One runner suffered a goring in the axilla at Espoz y Mina during the third encierro and two other participants were hospitalized for contusions.
  • Cebada Gago’s second run stretched to 5 minutes and 22 seconds when the bull ‘Caminante’ broke from the group, goring a 38-year-old Blanca police officer and prompting six extra transports.
  • Fuente Ymbro’s opening run lasted 2 minutes and 37 seconds with no horn injuries but resulted in six contusion transports due to falls.
