ON THE ROAD, OFF THE ROAD

• A horse was killed and 32-year-old motorist from Rochester injured when the two met at the 1100 block of Lincoln Creek Road west of Centralia at about 2:30 a.m. on Saturday. The driver said he came around a corner, saw a large horse in his lane and was unable to avoid it, according to the Lewis County Sheriff’s Office. The horse rolled over the hood and the top of the Honda Accord and died at the scene, according to the sheriff’s office. The driver suffered a bruised forehead, the car was totaled, Chief Deputy Stacy Brown said. Brown said the horse had broken out through its fence earlier in the day and its 19-year-old owner had been unable to find it. She will likely be cited for animal at large, Brown said.
