It is the second bolting incident in recent months after a similar one took place in April when a bloodied white horse raced through the busy streets of central London.
The moment three runaway military horses bolted through central London after losing their riders has been caught on camera. The incident is just months after shocking images emerged in April when a number of horses broke loose and ran through the UK capital. Police and the military said they worked together to 'swiftly and safely' recover the animals after they fled this morning.
The Ministry of Defence confirmed all horses were safely collected and returned to Hyde Park Barracks by 9.55am. One of the horses suffered 'minor injuries' and all of the soldiers escaped unscathed. None of the three horses were involved in the previous bolting incident from 24 April, the ministry added. An army spokesperson said: 'We can confirm that whilst exercising this morning, three horses from the Household Cavalry Mounted Regiment became loose from their riders.
