Vancouver music teacher killed in fall from horse
VANCOUVER, Wash. (AP) - A Clark County sheriff's officer says a 57-year-old Battle Ground woman has died of injuries suffered in an apparent fall from a horse.
Sgt. Kevin Allais said deputies were called Wednesday evening to a boarding stable in Hockinson after a horse returned without its rider. A fellow rider went looking for the missing woman and found the body of Candace Morrison about a mile up a gravel road owned by a timber company. Allais says Morrison had not been wearing a riding helmet and suffered head trauma.
An autopsy is pending.
Morrison was a music teacher at Hudson's Bay High School in Vancouver.
