A professional bull rider has d**d after being trampled during a rodeo event in Texas, according to the Professional Rodeo Cowboys Association (PRCA).
Dylan Grant, 24, was competing in the second round of an Xtreme Bulls competition at the Wharton County Youth Fair in Wharton on Thursday when he was thrown from a bull and then trampled, the PRCA said in a statement Friday, as reported by ABC News.
Emergency responders quickly reached Grant, placed him in an ambulance, and worked to stabilize him before he was airlifted to Memorial Hermann-Texas Medical Center in Houston.
Despite their efforts, he later succumbed to his injuries, officials confirmed.
Grant, a native of Laramie, Wyoming, has built a solid rodeo career, competing in multiple events and earning over $15,000 since he began in the sport, according to his PRCA bio. He earned his PRCA permit in 2018 and officially joined the Professional Rodeo Cowboys Association by purchasing his PRCA card on February 14, 2024.
