PAMPLONA, Spain, July 7 (Reuters) - Three men were gored during the opening run of Pamplona’s bull-running festival, the Red Cross said on Friday, with one other reported injury during the 875-meter run through the northern Spanish city. One of the men was caught by a bull’s horns in the thorax and one in the scrotum, the Red Cross said. Two of those gored were from the United States, aged 29 and 35, while the other was a 46-year-old from Navarra in Spain. The sprint, which typically attracts about 2,000 runners, lasts just under three minutes as participants dressed in white and wearing red neck scarves run from a dozen bulls. The animals were from cattle breeder Cebada Gago in Andalucia, renowned for rearing dangerous bulls responsible for the most injuries in the history of the week-long San Fermin festival.
