A four-year-old girl was among the injured.
It happened at the “running of the bulls” event yesterday (24 September) morning.

Horror footage shows how the muscular bovid charged towards spectators on the other side of a fence.
One of the metal bars broke as the bull smashed through the fence and ploughed into the crowd.
One person was lifted into the air as the powerful animal rammed them with its head.
The horror unfolded in Pantoja, south-southwest of Madrid, Spain.
A 74-year-old man from nearby Illescas died after receiving a deep goring.
The injured are a girl and her grandparents, who live in Pantoja.
The girl sustained minor injuries to her lip, while her grandmother received a clean gore wound to her thigh.
None of the three are in serious condition.
After smashing through the fence, the bull headed towards a nearby field.
It was eventually shot dead by the local police.
The remainder of Tuesday’s festivities in honour of Pantoja’s patron saint was suspended after the tragedy.
The police are investigating the tragedy, as reported by Need To Know.
Pantoja mayor Julián Torrejón insists it was an unforeseeable accident.
He said: “I want to make it clear that everything was in order.
“We had our insurance, all the necessary permits from the regional and provincial authorities, and the government delegate was present.
“We had checked the route just minutes before, and everything was fine.”
On 16 September, a 64-year-old man was gored at a running of the bulls event in La Vall d’Uixó, north-east of Valencia.
The victim, identified as F.M.N., received entry and exit wounds in the goring, which had an upward trajectory.
Luckily, the bull’s horn missed all his major blood vessels.
But his scrotum was “affected” by the horn’s “entry into the left inguinal area above the sphincter”, according to his medical report.
