POST & COURIER<\/p>\n

By Dave Munday<\/p>\n

Another carriage animal fell down on a Charleston street Thursday morning.<\/p>\n

Photos of the mule lying on its side were quickly posted on Facebook.<\/a><\/p>\n

The 8-year-old Matilda, who was hooked up to another mule pulling 16 passengers, tripped and fell at Queen and East Bay streets about 10 a.m., according to Phil Bailey, a spokesperson for Palmetto Carriage Works.<\/p>\n

The mule stayed down as trained until her tack was removed, and she was back on her feet in 7 minutes and returned to the stable, Bailey said. There was no sign of injuries other than a minor scratch, but she would remain at the barn until a vet checks her out, he said.<\/p>\n

“Sometimes horses and mules can trip just like you or I,” Palmetto Carriage Works General Manager Tommy Doyle said in a statement Thursday afternoon. “We are taking all proper precautions and making sure Matilda is thoroughly looked over by a licensed vet. We expect that she will receive a clean bill of health.”<\/p>\n

Dan Riccio, the city’s livability and tourism director, said his investigation had found nothing to the contrary.<\/p>\n

In an April 19 incident, a Charleston Carriage Works horse named Big John pulling about a dozen passengers tripped and fell at Meeting and Hasell streets.<\/p>\n

Also, on Jan. 17, a Palmetto Carriage Works horse named Trump stumbled near King and South Battery streets while pulling the driver, a tour guide and 13 passengers.<\/p>\n

In both cases, the carriage company owners said the animals were healthy and not tired and simply tripped, and city officials found no evidence to the contrary.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
