Horses and people are still hospitalised after a number of animals belonging to the Household Cavalry ran through the streets of London.

Four of the seven horses threw off their riders after being spooked by a loud noise yesterday.

UK Correspondent Vincent McAviney told Andrew Dickens that they were right by Buckingham Palace, running through some of the busiest streets in the city.

He said that it frightened a lot of people, one horse crashing into a cyclist, another into a taxi, and a third into a double decker bus.
