Horse Stuck On Ice Overnight Rescued

WRENTHAM (CBS) --  A horse was rescued Thursday morning after being stuck on the ice overnight.

Wrentham Fire Department responded to a call shortly before 10a.m. where they found a horse lying on the ground on Chestnut Street. The horse, Bob, had apparently wandered from his stable, slipped on ice in the middle of the night and was unable to get back up.

Local officials, along with the Massachusetts Equine Clinic were able to harness Bob using a front end loader, fire hoses and chains, and pull him upright. According to Wrentham Fire, he was then able to walk back to the barn on his own.
