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.

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.

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

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.
