Bull Escapes Rodeo, Injures Three in Brazil

A bull escaped from its enclosure at the Festa do Peão de Passos rodeo in Passos, Minas Gerais, Brazil on Friday night, injuring at least three people. The incident occurred after a 25-year-old cowboy fell during a bull riding event. While the cowboy was being treated, the gate was opened for paramedics, providing an escape route for the bull. "It was chaos," said one eyewitness, who declined to be named. "People were screaming and running." The bull was eventually contained by security personnel. The injured individuals received medical attention. Organizers stated that enhanced safety measures will be implemented for the remainder of the event. The incident serves as a reminder of the inherent risks associated with rodeo events and the importance of robust safety protocols.
