Rescue 22 was dispatched to the 200 block of Bomberger Rd. for a Public Service. During response, LCWC gave an update of a horse that is trapped in an underground manure pit. Deputy 22 arrived on scene and confirmed the report, requesting a wrecker from EAS Towing to respond. The horse was submerged up to its neck in the pit. With this update, Engine 22-1 also made the response for manpower. Rescue 22 and Engine 22-1 worked together with the farmer and the towing company to get a soft sling around the horse. Once the sling was secure around the horses body, the horse was lifted from the pit. The horse was very tired, but otherwise unharmed.
