Leandro Pereira de Andrade, a 23-year-old cowboy, tragically lost his life after falling from a bull during a bull riding event and being subsequently trampled. The incident took place at a farm in Amorinópolis, located in western Goiás, Brazil. Emergency services transported him to the Iporá UPA, but despite medical assistance, he succumbed to his injuries. The event, which seems to be an informal rodeo among friends, has raised questions about safety protocols and practices in such competitions.

The local police, led by Delegate Ramon Queiroz, have begun an investigation into the circumstances of the accident. Initially, they will gather witness testimonies to ascertain whether Leandro was training alone or participating in an informal competition that lacked necessary safety measures. The community is left to ponder the implications of safety measures during rodeo-style events, especially in informal settings where rules might be overlooked.

This tragic event underscores the need for stricter regulations and safety protocols in rodeo competitions, particularly those that take place outside of formal venues. As investigations continue, there may be calls for improved oversight to prevent future incidents and to ensure the safety of all participants involved in such dangerous sports.
