LOUISVILLE, Ky. — Firefighters rescued a horse after it fell through a frozen pond in southern Indiana.
At about 3:30 p.m., the Monroe Township Fire Department responded to the 7700 block of Henryville-Otisco Road after receiving a report of a horse that had fallen through the ice on a frozen pond.
When crews arrived, they found the horse stuck shoulder-deep in the ice and unable to free itself.
