UPDATE: 10 injured, mule in good condition after buggy flips over in French Quarter
NEW ORLEANS (WVUE) - A buggy carrying 10 people flipped over in the French Quarter Friday, leaving one woman with moderate injuries as her leg became caught underneath.
The mule pulling the buggy took off running when it became detached from the carriage, but it was found a few blocks away in good condition.
The accident happened around 3 p.m. at the corner of Royal St. and St. Philip St.
A passenger told FOX 8 that they were riding through the intersection and ended up where a commercial for Popeye's was being shot. They were stopped by police, who told them that they needed to back up. When they tried, the buggy tipped over.
In addition to the woman with moderate injuries, the nine other passengers sustained minor injuries.
FOX 8 will update this story as details are released.
