President Joe Biden holds a news conference amid continuous calls for him to step aside as the Democratic party's presumptive nominee.Two children and an adult were injured in collisions stemming from a startled draft horse taking off Thursday afternoon at the La Porte County Fair . Fair Board President Steve Mrozinski said the adult was taken by helicopter after complaining of trouble breathing while the children were taken by ambulance to a hospital with what appeared to be minor injuries.

Some of the children in 4-H accompanied by adults were in the arena showing their draft horses, which were pulling riding carts before judges in charge of the scoring. Mrozinski said a draft horse outside the arena somehow got startled and while running struck a cart pulled by another draft horse a short distance from the arena. He said the most seriously injured person was run over by one of the carts.About 30 minutes after the incident, a meeting was called in the 4-H Draft Horse Club barn to discuss what happened with about 100 4-H youth and others involved in the activities.
