Neighbors out for a walk wondered why there was a random pile of horse droppings in the middle of the street. They soon learned why.
SAN ANTONIO — Here’s a side effect of road construction you don’t think about: Horses finding their way into your neighborhood.
A neighbor who lives off Prue Road on the northwest side of San Antonio tells KENS 5 she was out for a walk and noticed something out of the ordinary: Horse droppings in the middle of the street.
As she turned the corner, she got her answer. A horse was trotting around her neighborhood.
It apparently escaped from a home in Oakland Estates, a nearby subdivision, around 7 a.m. Friday.
Neighbor, Debbie Schulz, shared a video of the horse on the loose with KENS 5. In the video, the horse appears to stay on the right side of the road, obeying traffic laws.
Another neighbor can be heard in the video asking, “You want me to give him a carrot or something?”
“No, no,” a different neighbor replied.
Construction along Prue Road had the entrance gates to neighborhoods open for a short period of time, which allowed the horse to trot in without entering a passcode.
We’re told the horse’s owner came by to take the animal back home shortly after it escaped.
