WILLOW GROVE, N.J. - A scary day for one majestic creature had a happy ending thanks to the work of local response teams.
The horse named "George" had slipped on the ice before falling through an icy pond in a flooded farm field in Willow Grove.
It was unable to free itself, so fire crews, police and a veterinarian were called to rescue the animal.
