Fighting bulls smash garden gates injuring toddler and grandmother in India
This is the moment a toddler and grandmother were injured when three bulls smashed their way into a garden in northern India.
A young woman escaped unharmed after leaping clear as the animals burst through the garden gates in Rewari in the state of Haryana.
CCTV showed the family of five women and a small child chatting in their garden on February 18, with cups of tea, unaware of the approaching danger.
Outside, a trio of bulls were rampaging through the street, locking horns as they crashed into walls.
The young woman spotted the danger and quickly moved the child out of the way.
She dashed over to shut the metal gates, but a split second later, one of the bulls came crashing through the gate as the three-way bullfight descended into carnage.
The bull blasted through the flimsy lock with his powerful frame, missing the young woman with just inches to spare.
As the gate door barged open, the grandmother was struck in the head and knocked to the ground while the sheer force of the blast threw the nearby toddler over.
The pair were taken to hospital but were not seriously hurt according to local sources.
There are over 70 million bulls on the market in India, according to the Economic Times, along with well over 200million cows and evidence suggests that figures are growing.
The animals play an important role in the country's religious beliefs and are a common sight running loose in the streets.

CCTV from outside showed two bulls fighting in the street, before one ran into the house where five men were working.
Internal security footage captured the group of workers fleeing the scene, some faster than others, as the black and white bull smashed through the room.
