Anyone know what happened with the horses from the terrible accident yesterday on 75 North? A huge white trailer ran off the highway right past the Barrett Parkway ramp. I've been worried sick!

I'm looking online, too. Haven't heard a thing. There are laws that must be passed and reinforced re transporting horses in CATTLE CARS. HORRIFIC. There have been so many accidents like this, how many horses have to die??? And the news reported they were being transported to places where buyers would consider using them for riding stables. I doubt that. Sounds like slaughter house to me.

A friend of mine was following the trailer when it happened. She said the wheel fell off, the trailer skidded sideways, the roof came off, and the three horses tumbled out. She helped out for 3 hours holding the horses and all. Said they were cut up but no broken bones; should be OK.

I've been worried sick! I was also on I75 and unfortunately saw that poor horse laying in the middle of the road. I was so very upset. The owner, I assume, was walking back to his truck with his head down. I could not believe it. You could see it was not good at all. I would be very surprised if the poor thing made it. He was very severely injured from what I could see.

The jerk knew the horse was skittish and still taking him from Brandon FL to Atlanta GA. Horse had to be shot by FHP. Very sad! For the horse!
