Today at 11: Police and firefighters have roped off a section of beach along the Bridgeport park district today amid reports that a loose horse has been spotted running back and forth on the shore. Eyewitnesses report that the animal charged and attempted to bite when approached.
Officials currently believe the animal escaped from a cargo boat taking livestock to Mexico but dock records haven't come up with any missing. The animal is described as a very tall draft horse stallion with a light mane, anyone with any information about who may own the horse is encouraged to step forward.
Animal control officers at this time are urging the public to avoid the beach and call Bridgeport PD immediately if the animal is found, but warned not to approach it themselves.
Coming up, the Bridgeport girls basketball team wins state, more news after the break.
