San Fermín’s Fifth Run: Chaos and Danger | Baltimore News

San Fermín’s fifth bull run this year turned chaotic—six bulls and steers charged through packed streets, goring one runner in the face and injuring twelve others, mostly with bumps and bruises. One bull broke off early, possibly triggering the goring. The 875-meter sprint lasted just over two minutes, with some runners seemingly oblivious to the danger as bulls shoved them aside. It’s the fifth day of the eight-day festival, marking the 100th anniversary of Hemingway’s “The Sun Also Rises,” which catapulted the event into global fame. While no deaths have occurred since 2009, injuries remain common—especially among tourists unfamiliar with the risks. This year’s run underscored the festival’s thrilling, perilous allure.
