LOOK: Horse Runs In Traffic On Busy Route 140 In Taunton

TAUNTON (CBS) – A Taunton commuter with plenty of horsepower turned some heads Tuesday morning.

A horse was loose on Route 140 just after 11 a.m. It was seen galloping in the right lane near Exit 19 while cars passed by.

Traffic was not impacted, but a passerby captured video of the horse on the move.

Massachusetts State Police troopers joined MSPCA Angell and Taunton Police and were able to get the horse under control using a leash supplied by a K-9 officer.

The horse's owner arrived a short time later and transported the horse back home.
