Matador flees from Bull gets arrested

Quote:
Cowardly matador arrested for fleeing ring
A Mexican matador was arrested for breaching his contract after losing his nerve and running from the bullring.

By Fiona Govan in Madrid
Published: 12:56PM BST 15 Jun 2010

Terrified Christian Hernandez dropped his red cape and ran from the charging bull during an event at the Plaza Mexico in Mexico City on Sunday.

The 22-year-old vaulted over the protective wall at the side of the ring as the crowd hooted and whistled in derision.

He was briefly persuaded back into the bullring by organisers but gave up before coming face to face with half-ton beast and skulked from the ring a second time.

He was arrested after the bullfight following complaints by organisers that he had breached his contract. He was later released after paying a fine.

The torero, who was badly gored in the leg during a bullfight several months ago, admitted that he had lost his nerve and would now retire from bullfighting altogether.

"There are some things you must be aware of about yourself," he said. "I didn't have the ability, I didn't have the balls, this is not my thing."

He was gored by a bull and I guess never recovered from it. He should have just retired then. Another one for the bull.
