Four people have been taken to hospital after five runaway horses of the Household Cavalry threw off their riders and raced through London.
The horses, one of which was covered in blood, caused chaos as they roamed the city centre and collided with vehicles, including a double-decker bus and taxi.
They initially became spooked by loud construction during a routine military exercise in Belgravia, the Army said.
Officers said the horses had been recovered and returned to camp.

@MichiganMade56
It's the Mauling and crowding by tourists that causes them to freak out .Guards allow people to get too close. Touch the horses. Are they NOT Soldiers? Keep tourists away. Or enforce the Rules.
@yolandatubin8126
A horse is a horse a horse of course unless the horse is the famous Mr Ed..
@a.scotth.9955
Once a horse is spooked and runs, it keeps on running in terror!!!
@craighanson-rc1md
of course its rampaging horses & the horses fault it happened nevermind the cause that spooked the horses or whatever. Its just crazy horses throw riders from the military & rampage through the streets of london. Its not the horses fault but clearly they'll be blamed. Cars taxis & stuff are insured & can be replaced animals like horses not so much. If it rampaging skunks or bulls ok I get it buts were friendly well trained animals & someone or something clearly spooked them & for it to be not just one horse spooked but multiple makes it even more clear it wasn't the horses fault.

Oh my god, these poor horses. Absolutely heartbreaking watching this. What a miserable existence for all of the cavalry horses.

@frankstared
Only humans enslave other animals for war, persecution and cruelty. No, only some humans.
@frankstared
Ghastly. Human beings should be ashamed of themselves.

Why would the sight of a running horse be upsetting? Who is that fragile and how would such a person exist in this modern world?
@amandavillarroelolivera6455
OH NOO. REACCIONAN ASI, PORQUE ALGO NO ESTA BIEN CON ELLOS.
LOS ANIMALES SON SENSIBLES, TAMBIEN SE CANSAN, NO SON OBJETOS PARA USARLOS PARA CUMPLIR TAREAS LARGAS, DEBEN SER TRATADOS CON AMOR, RESPETO, DIGNIDAD, CONSIDERACION DEBEN TENER PERIODOS DE DESCANSO.
@margielewis6009
I hate when fear, rules the day. at least the horses will be taken care of
@Reesella
Hope the horses are ok😢❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
@bcbb3338
When they were running, they seem so happy!!! They want to be free, they don't want to work because its not their duty!!!
@ilciavargas7318
Poor horses why they are using them in cities knowing that horses are very nervous animals. It was so sad to see them bleeding i think is time we realise that is so cruel to expose horses to so much stress and terror.
@gilbertmeleasa
They are the most beautiful animals!
@chrisdawson6156
That's me running from people who annoy me
@ChristineDrennan-c9p
Probably dumb tourist doing!!!
@Lisachanning05
This is what happens when pomp and ceremony take the place of common sense. Will you now stop the ridiculous unecessary horse guard 💂♂️ dim witted monarchy.
@quidam53
Very simple….horses don’t belong in a city. They should be in the country where there is grass.
@isabelsanchez4839
Que lindos estos caballos que creo jehova que elegantes dice la biblia

I hope all the horses and people are okay!!! Oh my gosh!!!😢
@simonci5177
They make a sausage out of them, and feed to other horses, to show them what happens if they not calm
@hannahw9767
Something doesn't add up. If these horses were running in "a blind panic", why weren't they frothing at the mouth, sweating, or showing the whites of their eyes? And how could untrained bystanders "calm them down" without any resistance from the horses? No rearing, pulling away, nothing?
@janwarriner6554
Good for the horses…running free!! ❤️ They’re so abused by the guv.
@chocolatefrenzieya
Ohhh that poor grey!! Even his nose was bloody. 🙁
Ugh, just saw the pooling of blood under the black. Poor babies.
