A raging bull escaped from a rodeo onto the street before charging at terrified locals.
Footage filmed from a car shows the animal sprinting along the pavement before colliding with a woman and sending her tumbling to the ground.
Other pedestrians, caught with their backs turned, were taken by surprise as the large creature suddenly hurtled past.

Further clips show bikers attempting to steer clear as the bull marched down the middle of the road.
The incident unfolded in Baixo Guandu, Brazil, on Sunday (12 Apr), during celebrations marking the town’s 91st anniversary.
The bull was eventually caught in neighbouring Aimorés, about 7km (4.3mi) away, with at least six men needed to restrain it.
According to Tiago Raimundo da Silva, owner of Circuito TR Produções, which organised the rodeo, the animal became agitated while still inside the lorry.
It broke free during unloading and managed to escape before it could be brought into the venue.
Ana Lívia Demoner, from Itarana, was injured after being knocked to the ground by the animal.
The 21-year-old nursing student was arriving at the event with friends when she was struck, as reported by Need To Know.
“There were lots of people and I started hearing screams,” she told local media.
“When I turned around, the bull was already right next to me. It shoved me and I fell face-first on to the ground.
“My arm was completely bruised, my face was badly scraped, my hand was also scraped, and my knee was quite badly injured.
“A man checked if I was okay and said there was a first-aid station nearby. I went there, they treated me, and then I went to another hospital for tests.”
She said: “I’d just gone to enjoy the party with my friends, but this ended up happening.”
