Bank manager, 51, kicked to death by daughter's 'freaked out' horse as they travelled to showjumping event

A bank manager was kicked to death by his daughter's horse as they were travelling together to a showjumping event, an inquest heard. Peter McGuire, 51, was fatally hit in the head as he attempted to calm the gelding when it became agitated and began thrashing about in the back of his horsebox. Mr McGuire's wife Marie, 48, tried to rescue her husband but she too was injured by the animal. She then looked on in horror as the ten-year old chestnut coloured horse, called Hedgehog, 'freaked out' and broke free from his tethering before bucking its hind legs.
