VICTORIA A horse that slipped and fell into a ditch in Central Saanich was rescued by first responders on Tuesday morning. Capt. Brennan Gummer of the Central Saanich Fire Department says the incident was reported on the Willow Way trail around 10 a.m. Gummer believes the horse was walking with its handler when it went over to the side of the trail to eat some grass. The tall grass was hiding some loose terrain, which caused the horse to slip and fall, says the fire captain. A range of first responders headed to the scene, including firefighters, police, public works staff and a veterinarian. All in all, about 15 people were helping free the horse, including its handler, according to Gummer.
