A 32-year-old man died in the village of Villaseca de la Sagra in central Spain after being gored in the neck by a bull during the local village celebrations, it was reported Monday.
Town Mayor Jesus Hijosa told Spanish media the victim, named Miguel Sirerol, had been "in the path of the bull which he was filming on his mobile phone."
Hijosa explained the bull had "surprised him and gored him in the neck," during the annual event when bulls run through the streets of the small town of just 1,500 inhabitants in the province of Toledo.
Sirerol is the second person who died after being gored by a bull in the Villaseca de la Sagra in the past five years. Another young man was killed in the 2010 fiesta.
Every year sees people die as a result of incidents with bulls in local celebrations in Spain.
The most famous bull running event in Spain is the San Fermin Fiestas in the town of Pamplona. Although this year's event passed without any serious injuries, 15 people have died in the past 105 years at the fiesta.
