At least 5 people and 500 others injured about after a bullfighting ring in El Espinal, central Colombia collapsed.

The accident occurred during one of the country's traditional bullfighting performances.

Media reports, quoting local officials, said that the city's hospital and ambulance services were unable to handle the number of wounded, and that the city's medical authorities needed support from ambulances and nearby hospitals, as many people were still without care.

As the surrounding platform walls collapsed, an angry bull escaped from the square, causing panic in the city streets.
