Horses Killed in Interstate Mishap - Pennsylvania

Three horses were struck and killed this morning on Interstate 81 in Susquehanna County.

A tractor-trailer driver got quite a surprise in Susquehanna County when he saw four horses and donkey right in front of him on the highway. Police said he hit and killed three of the horses.
Emergency workers rounded up the surviving horse and donkey around 2:30 a.m.
Troopers said the animals are owned by Dawn Frisbie of Hop Bottom but were kept at a farm not far from the interstate. Somehow they got away and got onto the interstate.
All lanes of I-81 were closed for an hour and a half.
The driver of the tractor-trailer wasn't hurt but the three horses he hit didn't make it. An animal rescue team took them off the roadway later in the morning.
No one answered knocks at Dawn Frisbie's door.
