Riderless horses seen galloping through central London | VOA News

▶ Four people were taken to hospital after frightened army horses broke loose during morning exercises in central London and galloped through the streets at rush hour, the army and emergency services said.

👉 A number of prestigious army cavalry regiments have stables in the British capital and horses are a regular sight around government buildings on Whitehall, Buckingham Palace, The Mall and in nearby Hyde Park.

The seven horses and six soldiers from the Household Cavalry were on an extended exercise in Belgravia, near the regiment's barracks off Hyde Park, when the chaos erupted.

Four service personnel were thrown from their horses and five of the animals got loose.

It is believed the animals were spooked when some concrete being moved by builders hit the ground. (AFP)
