Horseback ride halted across Golden Gate Bridge

Monday, May 4, 2009

A man riding his horse across the Golden Gate Bridge on Sunday evening didn't get far before the California Highway Patrol stopped him.

The spectacle of horse and rider on San Francisco's famous span slowed traffic at 6:20 p.m. The rider was heading from Marin to San Francisco in the sidewalk when the CHP caught up to him.

'We had him turn around and exit the bridge, and he had someone pick him up with a trailer,' said bridge district Sgt. Bill Sangregory."
