Sixth San Fermín Bull Run Sees Four Contusions, No Goring

Medical teams treated four runners for bruises after a brief debris-induced delay.

Overview

  • Official health services confirmed all four injuries were contusions and that no participants were gored during the sixth encierro.
  • Organizers postponed the 8:00 a.m. start by a few minutes after fragments fell from a balcony onto the course.
  • One bull veered off from José Escolar’s herd and charged toward runners without causing harm before rejoining the pack.
  • The six bulls from José Escolar’s ranch completed the route to the bullring in just under three minutes.
  • With two of the eight traditional runs remaining, San Fermín celebrations continue to draw hundreds of local and international runners.
