Horse gallops down NLEX

A horse was spotted galloping along the North Luzon Expressway (NLEX), after escaping from its stable in Barangay San Felipe, San Fernando, Pampanga.

As reported on 24 Oras Weekend on Sunday, video uploaded by Nicomedes Halili shows the horse galloping near the San Fernando Toll Gate of the NLEX last Friday night.

NLEX Corp., which operates the expressway, said the horse was turned over to Barangay Sta. Monica in San Simon, Pampanga at approximately 10:52 p.m. Its owner reported it missing to the San Fernando Customer Service Center at 11:10 p.m.

“According to the owner’s statement, the cold had escaped from its stable located at the NLEX underpass… in Barangay San Felipe, San Fernando, Pampanga,” it said in response to a query on social media. The owner has been advised to claim the horse in Sta. Monica.

The NLEX is an 84-kilometer expressway connecting Balintawak in Quezon City to Mabalacat, Pampanga. — Jon Viktor D. Cabuenas/BM, GMA Integrated News
