Part of the wooden stands collapsed during a bullfight in central Colombia Sunday, sending spectators plunging to the ground and killing at least four people and injuring hundreds, authorities said. The disaster took place in a stadium in the city of El Espinal in Tolima state during a traditional event called "corraleja" in which members of the public enter the ring to engage the bulls. Mayor Juan Carlos Tamayo said 800 spectators were seated in the sections that collapsed. Besides the four dead, another four people were in intensive care and two others recovering from surgery.
