Two horses 'in serious condition' after London bolt

Two of the horses who bolted and ran loose in London yesterday are in a"serious condition", a UK minister has said.

Two of the animals, a black horse and a white one drenched in blood, were seen galloping through central London. Mr Cartlidge also told Sky News:"There were five horses. They have all been recovered. Three of them are fine, two of them are unfortunately in a relatively serious condition and obviously we will be monitoring that condition."Asked about the condition of two of the horses by LBC, the minister said he"wouldn't want to say more" than that they were in a serious condition.

"So this is extremely unlikely, this scenario. Unfortunately we have seen what has happened, but all I can say is the crucial thing, as you said yourself, no serious injuries to the public as far as we aware, and of course we will be keeping an eye on the situation."
