ACCIDENT AT BECKER FARMS

The Buffalo News reports on a call to a super-busy Becker Farms last night....

Medics dispatched to farm following fall from horse

GASPORT — Ambulance crews responded to Becker Farms Saturday night, when a female rider suffered a back injury after falling from a horse. The accident occurred just before 9 PM at the Quaker Road farm, which offers a haunted hayride, among other attractions. The victim, whose name and age were not given, did not appear to be seriously injured, according to a Sheriff’s Office dispatcher.


I happened to be there for the haunted hayride with my family...including my EMT mom. She and I provided the initial treatment while awaiting the ambulance.
