A GIANT bull has been captured on film going on a rampage after goring a seven-year-old girl during a festival.

The girl had earlier been struck in the buttocks and abdomen by the animal, which had smashed its way out of an enclosure.

The accident happened just before the running of young bulls through the streets of the village.

The girl was savaged twice but hid under a parked car until medical help arrived.

She was taken to the Children's Hospital of Zaragoza where her condition is now described as stable.
