A dad whose wife is expecting his second child was gored to death during a Spanish bull-running festival in a sickening attack in an area known as the \u201cstreet of hell.\u201d<\/p>\n
Blood-curdling video shared online shows the bull hoisting cattle breeder Santiago Barrero San Rom\u00e1n, 33, into the air on Friday, then repeatedly stabbing him with its horns during the San Marcos festival in Ja\u00e9n.<\/p>\n
The rampaging animal continued to batter San Rom\u00e1n, a cattle breeder and dad to a young girl, on Calle Palomares, which is known locally as the \u201cstreet of hell\u201d because of the intensity of the bull runs there.<\/p>\n

\nSan Rom\u00e1n was pinned against a fence \u2014 despite the best efforts of other revelers trying to reel the animal in.
\nAround six onlookers tugged a rope that was wrapped around the bull\u2019s horns \u2013 while others cowered behind a makeshift fence.<\/p>\n
San Rom\u00e1n, who was part of a local cattle farming dynasty, was left with severe abdominal, chest and groin injuries and he later died in hospital, Spanish outlet El Haberler reported.<\/p>\n

\n\u201cYou are the most beautiful thing that has ever happened to me,\u201d the grieving widow wrote on Instagram. \u201cFrom the moment I wake up until I go to sleep, you are my first and last thought.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cYou are everything to me, to our daughters. I hope you give me strength and accompany me every day of my life, every step of the way, because I swear I will never stop thinking about you, about our dreams, our plans, our life together.<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019m broken for life because life has taken you from me unjustly and far too soon, because you had your whole life ahead of you with everything you had achieved.<\/p>\n
\u201cYour girls, your mother, your best friends, and everyone in the bullfighting world who truly loved you are devastated, but we will always keep you in our hearts, my love.\u201d<\/p>\n
San Rom\u00e1n died just four days after renowned matador Morante de la Puebla, dubbed the \u201cKing of Bullfighters,\u201d was gored up his rectum during a performance gone wrong at the packed Maestranza arena in Seville.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
