On November 11, members of HRP's Mounted Unit, police horse Val and his rider, were attending and assisting with the Point Pleasant Park Remembrance Day ceremony. During the ceremony the horse became separated from the officer, who was thrown to the ground. The horse continued on his own and a member of the public, who was in close proximity of the horse, got caught in the horse's gear. Both the member of the public and the officer received medical attention for non-life-threatening injuries as a precautionary measure. Both are doing well. The horse was caught a short distance away. HRP is looking into this incident.
