I think it's pretty clear from context what happened... his son was in a car accident where he hit a bull with the car, the bull died, the car was damaged, and the son is fine. Yeah it's not a James Bond movie plot but I think that's kind of his point. Not every event needs to have an action-packed narrative. Sometimes things happen and we need to convey the state of things in a way that avoids causing a strong emotional action, because that would distract from dealing with the situation. It's pretty much the opposite of a movie, where the the goal (generally) is to provoke an emotional reaction, rather than convey information.
