Four horses discovered loose in Delaware; police attempt to locate owners
Two ponies and two full-size horses were discovered over the weekend in the community of Centerville Reserve.
The horses, apparently well-cared for, were wandering along Centrenest Lane in the neighborhood at about 6:00 a.m. Sunday. One is a gray pony, the other pony a chestnut / gray mix. The larger horses are chestnut in color. Once the horses were corraled, New Castle County Police say they were taken to the home of a nearby resident who has a small farm. So far, police have not been able to determine who owns the horses. Anyone with information is asked to call police at 302-573-2800 or visit www.nccpd.com.
