A traditional festival celebration ended in horror when a father was fatally attacked during a bull-running event in southern Spain.
According to the New York Post, Santiago Barrero San Román, 33, was participating in festivities tied to the San Marcos Festival when a bull turned violent, launching a relentless assault that witnesses say unfolded in seconds but left lasting devastation.
The incident occurred on Calle Palomares, a stretch locals grimly refer to as the “street of hell” due to the intensity and danger associated with its bull runs.
Video circulating online captured the moment the animal lifted San Román into the air before repeatedly goring him.
Despite frantic attempts from nearby revelers to intervene, the attack continued.
Several people tried to control the bull by pulling on a rope attached to its horns, while others scrambled for safety behind barriers.
San Román was eventually pinned against a fence as the animal continued to strike.
He suffered catastrophic injuries to his abdomen, chest, and groin. He was rushed to a hospital but later died from his wounds.
The loss has sent shockwaves through his community. San Román, part of a well-known cattle-breeding family, is survived by his young daughter and his wife, Vanesa, who is pregnant with their second child.
