I know the lady and that report is nearly 100% incorrect!!!!!!
They have no idea at this point what happened, all they do know is that she died of a heart attack. They don't know YET if the car hit the pony and she fell off, or she had a heart attack, fell off and the pony hit a car. She was NOT on a bridleway, she was hacking around the lanes (all completely hi vized up).
2 other people from the yard she was on happened to come across the scene and took the pony back to the yard where THEY then called the vet. The pony only has superficial lacerations to it's face and chest.
I don't know why that report being so inaccurate has upset me but it truely has. It's been a bad enough 24 hrs as it is without reporters in a hurry to publish something and getting it wrong. We are waiting for PM results and accident investigationg team reports. All they DO know at this point is that she died of a heart attack and not any other injuries.
The worst part to me is that the only family she has in the world is her 95 yr old father who she lived with. He is now all alone (as you can imagine people are ralleying around)
RIP Lindy. We miss you.

I can appreciate how upset you feel at the inaccurate reporting. As you know the person it must be very important to you that the truth is told and not sensationalised. My sympathies to all friends and especially the lady's father.

Saw this at lunch time. Very sad news. Thoughts are with her poor dad and her friends.
