London police contain 2 horses that were on the loose in the city. It's still a mystery as to why

London police say they have contained two horses that were seen running around loose without riders in the heart of the capital. City of London police said officers were waiting for a horse box from the British Army to collect the animals and take them to a veterinarian on Wednesday. One of the horses was covered in red. It wasn’t immediately clear if it was blood or red dye or who the horses belonged to. They were seen running in the road in between London’s historic financial center and the West End, the hub of the capital’s entertainment industry. Police officers contained the horses about 4 miles or 6 kilometers east of central London.
