Two horses died Tuesday afternoon following a crash in Eddington.
The horses were being hauled in a fifth-wheel trailer on Route 9 about 2 p.m. when the truck hit a tree, causing the trailer to detach, according to the Penobscot County Sheriff’s Office.
Two more trees were struck.
The horses were “badly injured.” One died instantly, while the second had to be euthanized, the sheriff’s office said.
The truck’s driver was taken to the hospital with injuries not considered life-threatening.
No additional information was immediately available.
