Barcelona Bans Bullfighting

BARCELONA, Spain (AFP) - Barcelona became the first city in Spain to ban bullfighting after a massive campaign by animal rights activists against the "cruel practice".

Protests were held in the Catalan capital as councillors took the vote at city hall, with demonstrators waving placards declaring "Barcelona against bullfighting."

Animal rights groups had collected 250,000 signatures from around Europe which they handed in to Barcelona's city hall last month.
