Abandoned, Underweight Horse Found Wandering Streets Of Philadelphia's Hunting Park Neighborhood
PHILADELPHIA (CBS) -- The Animal Care and Control Team is caring for a horse that was found wandering through Philadelphia's Hunting Park section. Neighbors living along North Darien Street gave it food and water until the ACCT Philly could get there to pick it up on Monday afternoon.
It's not yet clear where the horse came from.
He is now being called Darien.
"Darien is resting comfortably tonight, we are so thankful to the people who cared after seeing him abandoned. He's very underweight and will need some TLC, and we are reaching out to our rescue partners about him as Philly is no place for a horse of course!" ACCT Philly tweeted.
