Horse Rescued from Ditch
in News
Firefighters from Bromsgrove attended the incident, and with the assistance of the horse’s owner and a vet at the scene, they managed to cut away trees and dig away the soil until the horse was in a position to stand. They also used air bags to assist in the two-hour rescue.
Group Commander Phil Russell from HWFRS said: “The horse, called Legend, was fairly old and certainly could not have climbed out of the trench unaided. Thankfully, we were able to get the horse back on its feet and we left it in the care of the vet.”
He also thanked contractors working nearby for their help during the incident.
