Summary
An 18-year-old Indian tourist died after a horse-drawn carriage he was riding in bolted in Central Park, crashing into another carriage and flipping over. The horse, only in service for six weeks, reportedly startled when the driver took a photo — a violation of safety rules. Animal rights advocates and lawmakers are now pushing harder for a full ban on carriages in the park, citing rising safety concerns and recent incidents involving horses and riders. The driver has been suspended, and the horse will be retired. Supporters of the proposed ban, known as Ryder’s Law, are urging immediate action to protect both people and animals.
