Bullfighter Loses Two Teeth After Bull Shoves Horn Into His Mouth

Shocking footage has emerged of the moment a young bullfighter lost two teeth after a bull shoved one of its horns into his mouth.

Peruvian toreador Andres Roca Rey, 19, was participating in a traditional bullfight at a venue called Plaza Nuevo Progreso in the Mexican city of Guadalajara when he was attacked.

The ‘performance’, which saw Roca Rey end up on the ground several times, finished with the bull violently hitting the toreador with one of its horns, shoving it into his mouth and breaking two of his teeth.

Video footage shows the man with blood on his face being treated by one of the organisers.

The bullfighter was taken to a local hospital for treatment and medics said he was lucky not to have suffered a more serious injury.

They have put provisional implants into the man’s mouth to prepare the tissue for his new teeth, which are due to be put in place within the following weeks.

Meanwhile the torero told local media that he is anxious to participate in his next bullfight due to take place on November 29 in order to rebuild his reputation.
