Chaos erupted in the heart of London today as several loose Household Cavalry horses ran amok, leading to four people being rushed to the hospital. The incident, which unfolded during the usual morning exercise, saw the animals spooked and careening through busy streets.
In a startling turn of events, the cavalry horses, part of a routine patrol from Hyde Park Barracks, collided with multiple vehicles, including a bus whose windscreen shattered upon impact. The scenes of disruption were captured in numerous photos and videos circulated widely across media platforms.
Military personnel and the horses themselves suffered injuries in the frenzy.
The Army has confirmed that all involved are now receiving medical care, and thankfully, all the horses have been secured after their unexpected escape.
The ordeal led to emergency responses across several key locations in London.
The London Ambulance Service was quick to attend to the injured at Buckingham Palace Road, Belgrave Square, and the busy junction of Chancery Lane and Fleet Street.
A spokesperson from the London Ambulance Service highlighted the swift action of their teams, noting that paramedics were on the scene in less than a minute. They confirmed that the response is ongoing as they collaborate with other emergency services to manage the aftermath of this unusual disruption.
