A LOOSE bull sparked widespread panic yesterday (Saturday) afternoon when it escaped onto the streets in an Albacete-province town during the local fiestas.
The animal escaped from its lorry, parked in Elche de la Sierra, at around 15.30 where he and other bulls had been brought for the festivals in the nearby tied hamlet of Peñarrubia.
After galloping around the town for some moments, he is thought to have been stunned with tranquilliser darts.
Nobody was hurt and no damage was caused, according to Elche de la Sierra town hall's Facebook page.
A MAN declared dead at his home in the province of Tarragona was on his way to the funeral parlour when he turned out to be alive, according to police sources.
A NEW child protection law named after a British musician living in Spain has been approved in Congress and is set to be signed off by the Council of Ministers on Tuesday, June 8.
