American Equestrian Dies After Horse Refuses Jump in Fatal Fall
Chloe Christina Smith, a 25-year-old equestrian from Massachusetts, was killed when her show horse balked at a jump and collapsed on her. The accident occurred during a ride with friends on the night of June 5. She was airlifted to UMass Memorial Medical Center in Worcester but died hours later surrounded by loved ones. The horse also sustained a fatal neck injury, according to her family and local reports. Just weeks earlier, Chloe had fulfilled her dream of buying a working horse farm in Berlin.
