Man killed in Pamplona's running of the bulls
MADRID, Spain (CNN) -- A man died after being gored in the neck during the annual running of the bulls in Pamplona, Spain, the Navarra regional government said Friday on its Web site.
The death would be the first in the running of the bulls since a 22-year-old American was gored to death in 1995.
The latest victim was a Spanish man, Daniel Jimeno Romero, age 27, from the Madrid area who was vacationing in Pamplona with his family, CNN partner station CNN+ reported from the hospital, where authorities identified him.
He was rushed to the hospital in cardiac arrest and underwent surgery but died soon after, said the statement from the regional government, whose capital is Pamplona. Video Watch more about the fatality »
Amateur video footage showed the victim falling to the ground toward the end of race, just before the entrance to the bullring, and apparently being gored in the neck.
Three other runners were gored and suffered less serious injuries on Friday, and six others went to the hospital with bruises or other injuries, the Navarra government said. Emergency workers and ambulances line the route to quickly attend those who fall. Do you think this tradition should be banned?
The run in Pamplona started 400 years ago and became popular worldwide after author Ernest Hemingway wrote about it in the 1920s in his book "The Sun Also Rises," also published under the le "Fiesta."

The event is held July 7-14. Six bulls and a pack of tame steers run from the corrals, through Pamplona's old town, to the bullring -- where the bulls will die later in the day in a bullfight.
Including the recent death, 14 people have been killed in the runs since 1924, when record-keeping began.
This was bound to happen again and again and again.
Just one?
Dumb asses ... all of em!
Why is this news?
Second verse same as the first...
Happens every year.
Damn, the Bull went Bull.
Back in the day I would have been young enough to actually try that.
Because a man was killed in Pamplona's running of the bulls.
This guy sure looks like he is having fun...
Running of the bulls is awesome. Every city in every country in the world should make it a monthly event.
IMHO.
I'm surprised it isn't celebreated as the service to mankind that it actually is.
I fully endorse voluntary state accelerated natural selection.
Holy ing ...is that real?This guy sure looks like he is having fun...
Lesson: Don't mess with a bull on death row.
That hurts just looking at it.
, those bulls know where to stick it where it hurts.
too bad it was only one that died
imagine all the dead fat mexicans in san antonio

My Mother got gored by a bull in Rockford, Ill., in 1924 but didn't die!
Thanks to Sweet Baby Jaysus!!!
We need a little wild in our lifes. We are becoming pussies. I have a great uncle that I can't even move even though he is six inches shorter and weighs about 40 lbs. less than me if he doesn't want me to. He has been a farmer all his life and worked hard. He reminds me of my tenth level black belt instructor in Judo (the trainor for the Japanese Judo team) he pinned me to the mat and it looked like he wasn't even trying when I could do nothing to get him off. He was a tiny guy too.
