charlie d'agata shows us how a long-time spanish tradition quickly turned into a nightmare. >> reporter: the 1100-pound bull was supposed to chase young people around the arena but when he had had enough, he hurtled a security fence and plowed into the crowd at a bull ring in northern spain. terrified spectators screamed and scrambled for their lives, but some weren't lucky enough to get out of its path. the bull fell onto a 10-year- old boy, who is now in intensive care. one man was gored from behind. 38 others were injured. bull ring runners finally tied a rope around the bull to bring it under control. later, a crane took the animal away and it was killed. the debate over whether bullfighting should be banned is picking up steam in spain, a furious argument that pits animal rights against age-old traditions. catalonia became the first region to outlaw the sport last month. it's very rare for a bull to leap out of the arena and into the stands like this. official said the bull was about to be removed because it was underperforming. charlie d'agata, cbs news, london.
