Investigation Summary
At 11:20 a.m. on November 17, 2009, Employee #1, an Assistant Horse Trainer from California State Polytechnic University Pomona, was preparing a horse for "longlining" training in the "Bull Pen". As she stepped away from the horse, the horse bolted. Employee #1 pulled back on the lines, and the horse responded by leaning forward into the bit. The horse then kicked with its back left leg and struck Employee #1 in the left elbow. Employee #1 was transported to the hospital, where she received medical attention and underwent surgery for a fractured humerus.
