Firefighters from the Yorktown Indiana Fire Department answered an emergency call from the owner of a horse who tried to jump over a gate but ended up stuck halfway. The firefighters used cutters and spreaders to cut the fence so that the horse could be free from being trapped over the fence safely. The good news is that the horse was not injured after the firefighters were able to rescue the horse safely. Link is upi.com/5001724256724 via @upi

How in the world did the horse manage to do that??? The fence must have been too tall for the horse, I hope he will be OK,

The fence was a little too tall for the fence.

I am in agreement with you that the horse that was trapped in the fence is now free at last.

I'm glad the horse didn't injure itself trying to jump the fence. I'm glad the fire department could free it from it's ordeal.

That all sounds a bit of a horsey story. I wonder why the horse couldn't lift up its legs, and free itself. Maybe it was spooked by its position.

Most likely scared of its position on the fence.
