The Serbs were easily defeated and fled to Croatia but the campaign in the later ended with a disaster: the Bulgarian army was completely defeated in the battle of the Bosnian Highlands by the Croats under their King Tomislav I on 27 May 927. Alogobotur most probably perished in the battle along with most of his soldiers.
