That is horrible.  Assault charges, at least!  They can probably be charged 
with animal cruelty as well, but those charges unfortunately don't amount to 
much.

I really hope they find and charge these people.  If this isn't stopped, it 
will only be a matter of time before a person is seriously hurt or killed.  
These two folks were very fortunate that they weren't seriously hurt.

 This story does not accutactly reflect what happened out there. The horses 
were not merely "spooked" by the dirt bikes.
 These dirt bike riders were terrorizing these and other riders. They were 
doing circles around the horses and when the
 horses fled, they chased them on their dirt bikes. When the riders fell off 
they did not stop to help, but continued to
 chase the horses. It is fortunate that the two riders that were dumped were 
not seriously injured or killed. Tragically,
 the the young horse had suffer for hours until the vet arrive to put him 
down. This behaviour has got to stop!

Personally if they find these people they should be charged with assault with 
a deadly weapon.  The article indicated that
the riders were ok.  I thought of riding down there last weekend but maybe 
not.
