Contestant at Fieldstone Farms injured in fall from horse

August 31, 2017 By Stephanie Spyropoulos

A female competitor at the weekend events held at the popular Fieldstone Summer Showcase on Plymouth Street was transported by medical helicopter after a fall from her horse.

Halifax police and fire were on a detail for the event and were able to quickly tend to the young woman.

A paramedic and EMT rendered first aid as the ambulance arrived with staff quickly transporting her to a Medflight, which flew her to  Boston, according to Fire Chief Jason Viveiros.

The horse had landed on the competitor who was only identified as a 29-year old participant from out -of- state. She reportedly needed surgical intervention following the incident for what were termed as serious injuries.

Fieldstone Farms was not available for immediate comment.
