A TEENAGE girl has suffered a dislocated jaw as ten half-tonne bulls kicked at screaming spectators during Mexico’s chaotic version of “Running of the Bulls.”
The tradition, enacted in a handful of Mexican towns, traces its roots back to the centuries-old Pamplona bull-run in Mexico’s former colonial power.
But unlike Pamplona, where a pack of bulls chases people for a few minutes down a carefully cordoned-off path, in Tlacotalpan the beasts are let loose to rampage through the streets for hours as crowds taunt them.
