Brooklyn Carriage Accident!

From Fox News


A bride's big day was nearly stampeded Sunday when the horses pulling her wedding buggy got spooked, jumped onto a car and then ran into a traffic pole — minutes before she was supposed to get on board.

Nunzie Lumberto, 27, was waiting for her fairy tale-like buggy to pull up and take her to Regina Hall of St. Rosalie's in Brooklyn's Dyker Heights neighborhood at 1:50 p.m.

A wooden bar under the buggy snapped as it was a block from where Lumberto was waiting, smacking one of the horses in the rear and scaring both animals into a gallop.

Fady Tawadrous, 29, was in his car waiting at a traffic light when the rumbling steeds came charging in his direction.

'I saw two horses that weren't under control come running down 12th Avenue, dragging a carriage,' said Tawadrous, who had just left church with his wife, father and baby. 'They jumped onto my car,' he said, pointing to his shattered windshield and dented hood.

'It was terrifying,' he said.

Hi, I'm the bride!

It was pretty horrifying, it all happened right in front of us as me and my dad were exiting the limo to get on it. Luckily everyone is fine, the carriage driver suffered a few broken ribs and the horses only suffered some scratches on their legs.

Everyone that was at the church waiting for us panicked because they thought I was already on it and fell off. But all went well, and we got married.

Valentine Carriage has been in business for 20 years and has never had this happen before, and they have been great to work with.

I'm just glad everyone is fine.

The one time i make the news and my name is wrong, its Nunzia Luberto.
