There were two accidents on the western highway between Saturday night and Sunday morning. In the first, a vehicle ran over a horse at mile two and a half on the western highway.
The horse had been seen on the road for at least a day - but no one did anything. And so, in the night, the inevitable occurred when a vehicle crashed into the horse.
Here's what it looked like:...
