## Caption

At least one person was critically injured Wednesday afternoon when a runaway carriage horse bolted in Central Park with a family of passengers inside.

The horse was reportedly startled while the carriage operator tried securing the steps to help the family down at the conclusion of the ride, according to police sources. The horse took off with several family members still inside.

The carriage fell on its side as the horse tried to make a turn, throwing at least one of the passengers out of the carriage and onto the pavement.
