Police ‘catch’ runaway horse on camera

That’s not something you see every day!

A horse apparently got out from its farm in Chester Springs, Pennsylvania, and decided it needed a trip into town.

The odd scene of a riderless horse, complete with full tack, was caught on video and posted to the Phoenixville Police Facebook account where it has received more than 33,000 views.

Police said the horse threw a 16-year-old from her saddle.

Once it made it into town, a good Samaritan helped corral the horse.

The 16-year-old rider was not hurt during the riding accident, police said.
