Foot Model Who Married Doorman Sues Co-op Over Harsh Treatment
A police horse named Mr. Biggs is at the center of a lawsuit filed against the city last week. Allegedly the member of the NYPD's Mounted Unit took a bite out of a New Jersey woman last summer, and now that woman is suing.
According to the NY Post, Fair Lawn resident Dineen Rudd was "menaced and attacked outside a Chelsea restaurant last summer... near the bar Porky's on West 21st Street." Court papers say the mounted police officer allowed the horse to approach her, at which point the horse allegedly dug into Rudd and left her with permanent injuries.
The city has not yet commented on the suit, but Rudd insists that they should have been aware of the horse's "propensity to attack and bite human beings." No word yet on how much she's seeking in the "horse suit." And after the jump, video of police officers from the Mounted Unit explaining their day, their training, and their horses:

Hahahaha! Even the horses are tired of the bridge and tunnel crowd!
Fuck her and her lawsuit.
I'm tired of of these scumbags looking for payouts.
Really. Fuck you, lady. The horse is an animal. It bites, especially if you taunt it with your ugly face and try to take picture with it.
So what's her story - the horse charged her and bit her on the forearm? Unlikely.
Please let me be on the jury!
Now I know why horse stables have salt licks.
Let me guess, welfare queen attacked by large snarling horse trying to be held back by its leash. What a loser. Hopefully she will get nothing but a bill from her worthless lawyer. I suspect though with the way this city hands out paychecks just to shut them up, she will get at least part of her windfall and our MTA charges will go up again because of it.
The NYP article mentions a "ferocious, long-faced perpetrator", I can only assume that they are referring to Ms. Rudd.
ROFL
Mr. Biggs!! Noo!
Maybe she looked like a big fat juicy carrot.
