Summary
An Indian teen, Romanch Mahajan, died after being thrown from a Central Park carriage when the horse bolted — the first passenger death in such an accident in 50 years. His family is now preparing to sue the city, blaming negligence in horse safety and infrastructure, while animal rights groups and even some drivers agree the city must do more. Mahajan’s father, calling his son a vegetarian and animal lover, said his son “sacrificed his life for the animals.” City officials offered condolences but avoided addressing the lawsuit, as a City Council ban on carriages gains momentum — despite some drivers opposing it.
