Plaza horse-drawn carriage accident injures 3

KCPD patchKANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) — A horse drawn carriage was involved in an accident on the Country Club Plaza, injuring three people and a horse.

The Kansas City Star reports that the accident occurred Saturday night and witnesses said the horse appeared spooked as it ran loose into oncoming traffic before crashing the carriage into a wall.

The fate of the horse and the extent of injuries to the driver and two passengers are unknown. None of the injuries appeared life-threatening.

Kansas City Carriages, operator of the Plaza carriages and owner of the horse injured in the wreck, did not return calls Sunday seeking comment. The carriages are not controlled by the owners of the Plaza but are regulated by the city.

Police also released no new details about the injured.
