Good Samaritans, New York State Police Lure Escaped Horses Off Northern State Parkway
MELVILLE, N.Y. (CBSNewYork) -- Some drivers had to hold their horses Wednesday on the Northern State Parkway.
State police blocked traffic while good Samaritans tried to get a couple of horses off the road. They lured them with rice cakes, eventually managing to get them to safety.
The horses were returned to a Melville stable. They had escaped earlier through a fence damaged by a fallen tree.
The horses were not injured.
