HENDERSON, Ky. (AP) -- An early morning fire has killed 26 horses
at a western Kentucky stable.
The blaze broke out before dawn Thursday at Riverside Downs, a
former race track not far from the Kentucky-Indiana border.
Baskett Fire Chief Bill Shaw tells the Evansville (Ind.) Courier
& Press that only four horses survived. The barn was destroyed.
Fire officials weren't sure what caused the fire, which was
reported about 5:30 a.m. EST.
It's the second fire this year at Riverside. Six horses died
Jan. 4 in a fire blamed on a vending machine's electrical cord.
A call to a cell phone number for the stable co-owner was not
answered.
