A 13-year-old school girl succumbed to injuries at the Government Medical College Hospital in Adukkamparai near Vellore on Friday after she got hit by a charging bull during a bull race held at Panamadangi village in Katpadi, making her the third victim this year.
Police said that N. Vinodini, daughter of S. Naresh, had gone to her relative’s house for Pongal festival last week. A bull race was held in the village on January 15. Like all other residents, Vinodini was also witnessing the event from the space earmarked for spectators along the runway barricaded with wooden logs.
