RAW VIDEO: 2 Injured by Bull at Central Florida Rodeo

They were injured at the annual Cracker Day festival in DeLand.

Officials say two people have been injured by a bull at a central Florida rodeo.

Volusia County Fire Rescue officials say a man and a woman were injured in a "Grab the Tag" event during Saturday's annual Cracker Day festivities at the county fairgrounds in DeLand. Participants in the contest try to retrieve a tag from a bull's ear to win money.

Officials say the bull turned on the woman, ran after her and struck her in the arm. According to fire rescue officials, the man was injured by the same bull. Nearly three dozen people participated in the contest.

Both the man and the woman were transported to a hospital.
