Blood-soaked horses ran loose through London after breaking free from the Household Cavalry on Wednesday, 24 April. The animals, wearing saddles and bridles, charged through Aldwych. Pictures showed a soldier lying in the street on Buckingham Palace Road in Victoria. Other posts on social media showed a black 4x4 with blue lights following the animals. A Metropolitan Police spokesperson said: “We’re pleased to confirm that all of the horses have been accounted for. We are continuing to liaise with the Army.”
