My horse would do that on occasion when I was a kid.

Horses always know how to get home. In fact, the big challenge in riding them is keeping them headed away from home.

The 21-year police veteran riding him had some injuries to his neck and shoulder.

21 years on the job and some neck and shoulder injuries adds up to a nice pay off. 3/4 pay, tax free plus SSI. I wonder if there were any witnesses to the incident?

When I was a kid, the horse that pulled the milk wagon through the neighborhood knew all the houses on the route.

I’ve known a lot of horses. Most know their way back, and given any provocation or opportunity or suggestion at all they will start going where they get their needs met.

Much like us.

Him finding his way back home isn't unusual. Him getting back without getting hit or stolen is another thing though.

I carry a gun because a cop is too heavy.

Sounds like he is barn sour.

My dad, an old time plains cowboy in his youth, learned that if you are caught out in a blizzard you loosen the reigns and let the horse have his head. He will always take you back to the barn.
