Weather to blame for Highway 2 crash [Video]

A number of horses are being wrangled up following a crash involving a number of vehicles on Highway 2 near High River Wednesday morning.

RCMP said the crash took place around 4:30 a.m. in the northbound lanes of the highway.

Several vehicles were involved, including a horse trailer.

There were no major injuries in the crash, police said, but several of the horses escaped the trailer and “are currently being wrangled.”
