The police who responded to the report found the running horses and controlled traffic while following them for about 2 km. The fire department and police moved the horses to a safe place and blocked their movement with two fire trucks and four police cars. Around 10:10 PM, the horses were handed over to their owner.

These horses are retired racehorses that escaped from a riding stable operated by a resident of Gangseo-gu.

A police official stated, “The horses broke out of the stable because they were in heat,” adding, “Fortunately, there were no vehicle or human casualties, and the horses were not seriously injured.”
