The feast of San Giovanni in Bonarcado ended with an accident, which fortunately did not have serious consequences for two women.

On Saturday evening, as per tradition, at the end of the procession the riders traveled via Mannu several times and at the end of the gallop a horse ran over two women who were attending the party . Immediately rescued, they were transported to the emergency room of the San Martino hospital in Oristano.

One was discharged shortly after, the other after a series of tests returned home Sunday morning with several fractures.

«A very beautiful event, felt and participated by the Bonarcadesi, a symbol of the community's identity. However, greater responsibility is needed on the part of the riders and spectators», commented the mayor, Annalisa Mele yesterday afternoon.
