Stallion Struck On Assateague Island

ASSATEAGUE ISLAND, Md. (AP) — A wild stallion has been struck and killed by a car on the Maryland side of Assateague Island.
The National Park Service said in a statement Friday that the horse was hit on a causeway near a bridge. Park law enforcement officials are investigating and will determine if charges should be filed against the driver.
The 18-year-old stallion was named Jester. He was often seen around the causeway. More than 30 horses have been killed on seashore roads since 1982.
