This is a sad and terrible night for the Toronto Police Mounted Unit. Police mount Brigadier was killed by a hit and run driver on the street tonight. His partner was thrown off and is in hospital but will recover. These are all the details I know now. I'm so upset. I took this picture of Brig last week. He was a brave and beautiful horse. Rest in peace Brig.

Brigadier has left us too soon. His spirit is now in our hearts.

"Brigadier"
I am a horse, who's taken no oath,
I patrol the city for hay and oats.
I work long hours rain or shine,
I am a Police Horse strong and kind.
Patrolling the streets can be mean and scary.
But I'm always brave, alert and wary.
I have not chosen this life of service,
Yet I do it Proudly, without malice.
I love the public and their adoration,
Their pats and praises welcome attention.
My shift has ended, my Duty done,
I'm off to safe pastures, to play and run.
My human partners are pained and distraught,
For they loved me dearly, but worry not!
I felt your care, and Love for Me,
My patrol has ended, and I am Free!!!!!
T.P.
