ROAD TRAFFIC COLLISION - OPERATIONS SUPPORT DIVISION (XA) - LOG 0117 /
20.09.09
At 0052 hours on Sunday 20th September 2009, the first of numerous reports were received of a multi - vehicle Road Traffic Collision, on the A1 south, three miles south of Ferrybridge Services. Resources from the Motorway unit attended the scene, and a full closure of the A1 southbound carriageway was implemented at Darrington. It was established that three horses had been struck and killed on a blind corner of the A1. A fourth horse was located in a nearby field, badly injured and was put down by a local vet. Five vehicles were involved in the incident, and nine people
received minor injuries. Enquiries established an Equestrian Centre
situated within North Yorkshire's area and about one mile from the RTC had been broken into, resulting in the horses being in the carriageway.
The road remained closed for a number of hours pending recovery of the horses and damaged vehicles. Investigations into the incident are ongoing by the Motorway Unit. North Yorkshire police are conducting enquiries into the break in at the Equestrian centre.
FURTHER INFORMATION
The motorway incident was in West Yorkshires force area but the attempt
break in occurred just out of our borders and was in North Yorkshire Police
force area, so I only have limited information.
10 horses missing/stolen from local Equestrian Centre. Secure gates to the
yard had been removed using oxyacetylene / welding type device.
4 of the horses were killed as a result. It is not known if the horses were
stolen and the thieves changes their mind/encountered problems? Or if the
attempt theft went wrong and the horses broke lose? Or if the horses were
let out in an attempt to take equipment?
Either way, this is a despicable and very very sad chain of events leading
to the sad loss of 4 horses. I have no information of the
welfare/whereabouts of the other horses at this stage.
These people are going to rural areas fully equipped and intent on causing
chaos to make a few quid.
