After receiving a call Friday afternoon that a horse named Bear was stuck in muddy water on Orchard Beach, multiple police units gathered to heave the animal to shore.
The horse and rider were riding along a trail, when the horse veered onto a different trail and into the mud, police said, and while struggling to get out of the mud, the horse fell onto its side with the rider underneath.
The rider was able to free herself, suffered no injuries and refused medical attention, police said. A team of about 15 NYPD officers culled from Aviation, Emergency Service, Harbor, Scuba and Mounted units were called in to assist the distressed gray and brown horse that was lying on its side on the shore.
The team used ropes and a rescue glide under the back, side, and front of the horse to pull it from the mud, a video posted on social media showed. After receiving a call for a horse stuck in the muddy water @OrchardBeach
