Horse on A19

[guisbrogal]

My hubby was coming home from work tonight and rang to say he was delayed due to traffic jam on A19 near the Stainsby Grange farm.

When he got home he said there had been a horse on the road and he thought it had been killed

Has anyone heard anything about it?

ohh god no i havent

it will most likley be on north east news or somehting tomorrow. i hope the poor horse hasnt been killed :'(

It is your worst nightmare isn't it, that they should get out onto a road.

I really hope that it's not as bad as he seemed to think it was and that no one was hurt.

 

[meandmyself]

God, I drove past there this afternoon.

That just sucks. I really hope that the poor horse is all right!

This was at about 5:30pm

I passed there at 4pm ish.

Stainsby Grange is right on the A19. It's scary how close the road runs to some of the buildings.

Horse threw its rider 20 mins before so she must have been out in the dark? poor girl

 

[meandmyself]

Damn. Poor horse, and poor rider.

News we all dread. Very sad. Poor Rider, poor lorry driver, poor other drivers and POOR HORSE. - just hope it was quick, and didn't suffer for long.

poor horse and rider. such a sad thing to happen

 

[M_G]

OMG poor horse and rider its my worst nightmare and sadly could happen every time we hack

 

[Scheherezade]

Not necessarily - Stainsby Grange is right next to the road so she could have been in the school or riding through the yard.

So sad, the worst thing for anyone.

 

[guisbrogal]

Absolutely tragic!

At least no one was hurt and the horse sounds like it died pretty quickly

Heartbreaking though.

THere are a couple of places around that area that have horses I think so may not even have been from Stainsby.

I hope everyone involved soon feels better. Hugs to the owner.

Oh no that is horrible, brings back bad memories of when my poor girl was hit by a van and killed in september, poor owner/rider i really feel for them, i know what they are going thorugh

poor horse, i'm sure B will be waiting at the golden gates to take them over to the other side...
