A chaotic bull run at Spain's San Fermin festival in Pamplona on Saturday left 13 people injured, including one runner who was pierced by a horn in the face.
At least nine people have been injured so far during the traditional "Running of the Bulls" in Pamplona, Spain. Despite the risk, thrill-seekers gather yearly for the nine-day festival. Bucket List Events' Toby Atkins joins CBS News and calls the intense run "like a thousand heartbeats beating at the same time."
Animal rights advocates are celebrating after Mexico City's local congress on Tuesday passed legislation designed to make bullfighting safer and less violent. Under the legislation, killing or even injuring the bull is no longer allowed, and to protect the matador, the bull's horns will be covered.
A centuries-old tradition returns to Pamplona, Spain, Thursday as millions of participants take to the streets for the annual running of the bulls. Toby Atkins, owner of Bucket List Events, which helps people visit cultural events around the world, joined CBS News from Pamplona to talk about the event.
The nation is divided, and after 10 people were killed running with bulls this summer alone, the debate over the tradition is as fierce as ever.
