The horse was treated for a cut to the head and a swollen leg after a Chrysler PT Cruiser slammed head-on into the back of a trailer.

The driver crashed after overcorrecting to miss the pickup truck hauling the trailer, police said.

After impact, the engine fell out of the PT Cruiser, resting on a sidewalk beside Kitty Hawk Golf Center almost 30 feet away from the scene.

Both drivers and two other horses inside the trailer were unharmed.

The injured horse was treated by a veterinarian at the scene, while the other horses were moved into another trailer.
