Loose Horse Killed By Car

A horse is dead after being hit by a car early this morning.

RCMP Corporal Pat Cole tells CHSJ news the accident happened around 5:30 Monday morning when a thirty-five year old man struck the loose horse on Taylor Lake Road. The driver wasn't hurt but his car had to be towed.

The killed horse wasn't the only equine roaming around. Cole says around 9:30am they received calls about more horses wandering free out east.    

The horses were all rounded up and appeared to have escaped through a weak portion of their fence, which the owner says was closed.
