A Polish farmer is facing jail for being drunk in charge of both a horse and a lorry at the same time. Leszek Stepien, 62, of Skwierzyna, was using his horse to tow his broken down truck when he lost control and steered into the path of an oncoming car.

With the truck on its side, Stepien climbed out and began hitting the beast claiming it was “All his fault.” 

“Luckily the horse wasn’t injured but the owner is facing charges including animal cruelty and drink driving,” said one officer.
