Jackson, CA…From Amador Fire…Yesterday afternoon Amador Fire crews along with Sutter Creek Fire District were called to the report of a horse stuck in a mineshaft. Upon arrival crews found the horse in approximately 6-8 feet of water. Crews quickly used portable pumps to remove as much water as they could. With the assistance of Lynch’s Automotive’s crane and Loomis Basin Equine Medical Center, crews were able to sedate and secure the horse before removing him. Once removed, the veterinarians worked tediously to stabilize the horses injuries. The horse was then transported to a local vet and equestrian center. We would all like to wish Ranger a quick and speedy recovery.
