That’s not blood… right?
I mean it sucks for the horse, but that is a bad-ass photo.
One of the horses had its front covered by what appeared to be blood or red paint. The Army has not yet confirmed whether it was blood or what caused the injury.
Megan Morra, who was on her way to work, told the BBC that she saw one of the horses had a head injury.
“There was a lot of blood,” she said. “I was a bit distressed to be honest, looking at the poor horse.”
A taxi waiting near Buckingham Palace appeared to have a car window smashed by a spooked horse, while a parked double-decker tour bus had its windshield damaged.
So it sounds like they’ve crashed into a few things and they, and some people have been injured. Head wounds do tend to bleed impressively (as I well know) but aren’t usually too bad.
Yup. Apparently one of the horses went head onto a double decker- guessing it was the white one!
Chaos in the neigh-borhood
That was the mane point!
Maybe we need a gallop poll about this
I canter -nderstand it
This is the best summary I could come up with:
Chaos erupted when about seven horses from the Household Cavalry became spooked by noise caused by nearby construction workers while the animals were taking exercise in Belgravia, a swanky neighborhood just to the west of Buckingham Palace, British media reported.
The riderless horses galloped down main roads in central London, running into vehicles and stunning commuters as they headed to work.
Pictures and videos shared widely across social media showed two of the horses running at speed down Aldwych, in between London’s historic financial center and the busy West End theater district.
A taxi waiting near Buckingham Palace appeared to have a car window smashed by a spooked horse, while a parked double-decker tour bus had its windshield damaged.
The London Ambulance Service said it treated four people across three separate incidents in the space of ten minutes after the horses ran amok around 8:30 a.m.
The horses are from the Household Cavalry, the ceremonial guard of the monarch and a regular feature of state functions in London.

What were those cyclists thinking. They could see the horses and yet they still went ahead because green light.
In a swanky neighborhood they say? Fantastic. Word must’ve gotten thru to them and now the horses have teamed up with the Orcas to eat the rich.
My suggestion; Don’t be left behind, people.
Goodbye horses
The horses; they hunger.
