A galloping kind of rush hour in York Region

This was the kind of traffic motorists in Stouffville were being warned of yesterday during the  afternoon rush hour.  York Regional Police tweeted that a horse was on the loose in the area of Hwy 48 and St John Sideroad and warned drivers to be cautious.  It broke free of its owner and was last seen traveling eastbound on St John Sideroad.  This video from the YRP archives shows a horse that got away from his owner and took a nice easy gallop until it was corralled by police and a local farmer and returned home.  We hope yesterday’s escapee found its way back home safely as well.
