Two army horses were seen galloping through central London at rush hour on Wednesday, dodging traffic and causing concern among passersby. The horses, both wearing saddles and bridles, were seen running along busy roads, with one horse appearing to be covered in blood.
London’s Metropolitan Police and the City of London Police worked together to locate and contain the horses, with the help of the army. The horses were eventually taken into custody and transported to veterinary care.
The Telegraph reported that up to five army horses had thrown their riders while being exercised, and at least one soldier was injured.
The incident caused traffic delays and disruption in the area, but no major accidents were reported. The horses are now in the care of the army and are being treated for any injuries.
