FOX 29 journalist Joyce Evans reports on a horse that got stuck in a covered swimming pool and needed to be saved in Chester County. CHESTER COUNTY, Pa. - A horse was rescued from a covered pool in Chester County on Wednesday afternoon. "Came out of the bar, the gate was open to the pool area, he just wandered in," Malvern Fire Chief Jim Rapp said.
The “he” that Malvern Fire Chief Jim Rapp is referring to is actually a 17-year-old mare named Saffiyah, who was surrounded by rescuers.
Luckily for her, she had trotted out on top of a very strong pool covering on a local farm. “The hind legs were below in the water and one of the straps from the pool cover was holding its left rear leg up and that gave us enough time to get all our skid units
