Wayward horse lands on Bedford roof

Journal News

BEDFORD - A cat up a tree may sound routine for firefighters, but the call to Banksville Independent Fire Department - a horse on a roof - was anything but.

Firefighters arrived at 245 Bedford Banksville Road around 5 p.m. Monday after a resident called to report that a horse was stuck on - and in - their garage roof.

It's not our usual call," Banksville Assistant Fire Chief Bill Richardson said yesterday. "Very rarely do you see a horse on a roof."

The detached three-car garage is built against a hill, and the horse, apparently after escaping from a nearby farm, approached it from the top of the hill and jumped onto the roof after possibly being spooked by something.

Once it stepped onto the roof, a hoof went through, and it got stuck. "The roof couldn't support the weight," said Richardson, who is also the assistant building inspector for the town of North Castle.

As the horse struggled to gain its footing, different hooves broke through the roof but not all at the same time, Richardson said.

Firefighters had to wait until a veterinarian arrived and tranquilized the horse.

They then fashioned a ramp from the roof and walked the horse to safety.

The animal was not injured.

The rescue became the talk of the town yesterday in the communities covered by the Banksville fire district: North Castle and Greenwich, Conn.

When people asked Richardson how the horse wound up there, he said he told them, "it was a flying horse."
