Footage of the bizarre incident was shared on social media shortly after 11:30pm on Monday.

The horses, of which there were approximately 40, were filmed galloping through the Creggan estate in Londonderry.

The P.S.N.I. confirmed they made contact with the owner of the horses and that they had been safely returned to a nearby field.
