Bull-run survival author gored in Pamplona festival

An American who co-wrote a book called How to Survive the Running of the Bulls was badly gored in the morning bull run at Pamplona’s San Fermin festival.

A Spanish man was also gored in the ‘encierro’, when runners in red scarves and white outfits dash through the Spanish town’s streets pursued by the huge animals.

Chicago resident, Bill Hillmann, 32, tripped and fell when a bull gored him in his right thigh, according to festival website sanfermin.com.
