A horse that fell through the ice of an upstate New York pond was saved by rescuers who pulled together to free the animal from the frigid water.
Body-camera footage from responding officers shows the team of Saratoga Springs police and neighbors grunting and straining to pull Sly, a 1,300 pound horse, from a hole in the ice late Monday afternoon.
Sly’s owner, Ali Ernst, said she noticed her three horses playing on the pond when she came home from work, which was not uncommon. But when she looked out again, the 22-year-old quarter horse had fallen through the ice.
