Colombia bullfight kills 2
Spanish Bullfighter Julio Aparicio is gored by a bull during a bulfight of the San Isidro Feria at the Las Ventas bullring in Madrid, on May 21, 2010.
Two men were killed and at least 15 injured during a bullfight in northern Colombia.
The bullfight that took two lives was held on the second day of a popular festival on the country's Caribbean coast on Sunday. Some reports said that up to 44 people were injured.
According to Sky News, one of the victims, 46-year-old Daniel Cordona, was killed when the bull's horn gored through his heart.
"Unfortunately the animal caught him by surprise and gored him," said spectator Orlando Ramos.
