    Hi, I saw a incident today outside the ambassador in Dublin where a carriage went out of control. I saw the driver struggle with the horses at the junction of gardiner street and fall off the carriage. The two horses continued at high speed down the hill until something stopped them at the ambassador. I just saw people scatter.

    I was wondering if anyone could tell me if everyone was ok. I've been very upset all day wondering about the people in the carriage and those on the footpath.

    Nothing on RTÉ website or breaking news so guess not.

    Not upset or concerned enough to help or check on the horses and driver at the time though

    I rang emergency services and by the time we got to where the collision happened the police were moving people on.

    The driver had ran in the opposite direction and wouldn't speak to us when we tried to help.

    Bit of an unnecessary comment really don't you think?
