Bruno was diagnosed with tetanus after having been shot with a pellet gun, a weapon which also causes devastating musculoskeletal injuries. As frequently occurs, the accident happened while he was defending his zebus from thieves. The volunteer medical staff of the Hospital Vezo, in Andavadoaka, managed to extract some pellets and provided him with medications. Unfortunately, due to the late arrival, the tatanus was advanced, and Bruno had already started having strong muscle spasms and was risking death. Volunteers had to rush him to a better equipped hospital near Toliara, losing his tracks.
