A dog in Britain got loose from its leash and caused an accident involving horses (4 photos + 1 video)
On Monday, a fighting dog ran out onto the road and attacked horses on a street in Oldham, Greater Manchester. The frightened animals ran straight at oncoming traffic, the man's reins fell out of his hands, and he fell onto the hood of the car.
The footage shows the dog chasing and biting the horse, which rears up before throwing the driver. He falls onto the hood of the car and almost ends up under the hooves of a second horse. The dog's owner can also be seen running into the middle of the road and picking up something from the ground, likely a leash.
The video went viral after it was shared by Paul Mahoney.
Social media users reacted with horror to the situation, with one calling the incident "disgraceful": "I hope no one was hurt. The police need to be informed about this incident. People could have died"; "This is terrible, it could have ended worse"; "My insides sank. I can't even imagine what the participants in the incident felt"; "I hope the horses are okay."
