Sasha Martinez says the horse was trotting behind the truck Saturday when she saw it the first time outside her Wright County home. She says it seemed “odd” but thought the driver would stop soon. But when the truck returned about two hours later, her 12-year-old daughter screamed that the horse had dropped. Martinez then got in front of the truck, saying the driver “wouldn’t stop.”
