Mum's new horse killed today

Can't say too much due to ongoing police investigation but my mum's new 5 year old mare was deliberately killed today. The driver apparently has a problem with the rider, why drive into poor Cindy. The rider who is a friend of my mums has a broken ankle and cuts and bruises.

RIP beautiful girl, the best ones get taken early.

Too awful for words. Im so sorry. Not sure its right that no arrest has been made. As the law thinks its just an animal and the human is ok..:mad:

Really sorry to hear that. I have a really useful link for your mum, but if I post links I get warnings from the HHO moderators so I can't pass it on to you.

Why not PM it then?

Cannot imagine the grief, shock and anger you and your Mum must be feeling OP. Take good care of yourselves x
 
How sad poor Cindy. Your Mum must be in bits sending her good vibes. Whoever the barsteward is who did this I hope he gets his. if this was my Mum or my horse I'd probably be in jail right now :-(
 
This is such a sad post, if the driver did hit this horse intentionally they should be charged with attempted murder of the rider and cruelty in the extreme to the horse.
I cant express strongly enough my utter disgust and anger at this individual if it was intentional ...... Nope ive had to delete where my minds going as far as retribution goes so i dont find myself in bother.
Heres hoping what goes around comes around for them.
 
A lovely young point-pointer was hit and killed recently near Sidmouth. He was walking quietly down the road with full hi-vis stuff on when an 84yr old drove straight into them. Horse killed, rider airlift but the driver maintains didn't realise had hit anything.....even though his car pretty much a write off. Court case comes and he is fined £215 with a whole £5 to the victim. So wrong makes my blood boil

Bit different in this case. The OAP obviously did not mean to hit the horse. In OP's situation that may not have been the case as the driver may have done this deliberately.
 
So sorry about tragic loss, I did hear about it at the time as there was also a horrendous accident involving horse up by airport same day. Don't know about anyone else but my horse is my baby, if a child or another car was hit, the police would take immediate action....so why not because its a horse?????
