Horror as horse is decapitated
A HORSE was struck by two vehicles so violently it was decapitated in an accident on a rural road.
The animal is thought to have got out of a nearby field when the accident happened.
A police spokesman said the black horse was struck by a grey BMW estate car and another car travelling in the same direction.
“The 51-year-old man driving the BMW was treated for shock at the scene and was also taken to hospital to be treated for cuts. There was debris all over the road,” he said.
The accident happened on Moor Side Lane, Oxenhope.
