Grieving Police Officer Lies With His Dying Horse After It Was Hit By A Truck
Officer D Herrejon was thrown from the back of his horse Charlotte while on duty on the streets of Houston, Texas. She was startled by traffic and was hit by a cement truck.
The six-year-old mare had been part of the Houston Mounted Patrol for four years. As she lay on the street, Officer Herrejon, who later required medical attention, refused to leave her side.
He held her head and stroked her as she lay dying.
