Update - Rescue Complete - Agency Assist; INC#0803; 03:27PM; 10424 W Foothill Bl; https://bit.ly/3SLcQTm; #LakeViewTerrace; Nearly three hours of well-coordinated teamwork by 61 LAFD Firefighters alongside the City's Animal Services' SMART team and Sanitation Department (working alongside an LAFD Heavy Equipment Excavator with vacuum trucks for swift and efficient soil removal) has allowed the safe and successful rescue of "Lucky", a 20 year-old female Paso Fino weighing ~1200 pounds, who suddenly sunk in soft soil that developed into a deep sinkhole in the rear yard of her home shortly after noon today. Lucky has been assisted by the SMART team in slowly walking from the yard, and is soon to be evaluated by an on-site veterinarian. There are no responder or civilian injuries. Though there have been strong rainstorms in that area in recent days and some speculation that the suddenly appearing sinkhole may be related to an old septic system, the specific cause of the sinkhole, and horse becoming trapped, cannot be formally declared by firefighters.; FS 24; Batt 12; Valley Bureau; Council District 7; AO1 AO2 BC12 BC14 CM40 CM42 DT1 E24 E288 E289 E290 E90 EM10 EX2 H6 H7 HA6 HA7 HE1 HR3 PI1 PI2 RA827 RA889 RA91 T87 T88 T89 T90 UR88 UR89; CH8; 17; Brian Humphrey
