A 17-year-old Red Bluff bull rider is recovering from a broken back after being trampled by a bull April 15. Giovanni Kent was competing when his spur became caught on a strap, causing him to be dragged and stepped on by the bull. He was rushed to a hospital, where he was treated for a broken back. Kent underwent two surgeries in which rods were inserted to stabilize his spine, leaving him in a back brace. Family members say he is up and walking but has a long road of recovery ahead. A GoFundMe has been set up to help the family with medical expenses.
