Horse Plays Chicken -- Leaps Moving Car

This video is just insane: A horse somehow galloped into traffic in Israel yesterday -- and successfully hurdled a car that was driving directly towards it, crushing the front windshield in the process.

Horse: Click to watch
But fear not animal lovers -- according to local news, the horse only suffered minor injuries ... the car, not so much.

Police Report Casts Doubt On Madonna's Story

More proof Madonna may be engaging in a pap smear -- we got our hands on the police report detailing the horse-fall this weekend, and it says nothing about paparazzi causing the Madonna mishap.

Read the document

As we reported earlier, Southampton Village P.D. responded when Madonna took her nasty spill this weekend in the Hamptons, but no one told them anything about a photographer startling her horse -- the tale Madonna's camp was telling people Saturday night.

Cops Say Madonna Horse Story Is Bogus

Cops who took the report about Madonna falling off a horse over the weekend doubt the singer's story that a paparazzo jumped out of the bushes and spooked the horse.

The cops say no one from Madonna's camp said anything about a photog causing the mishap.

Sgt. Herbert Johnson from the Southampton Village P.D. tells us: "There is no mention of photographers. It's a matter of spin control that went out of control. If they felt there was something else, they would have written 'paparazzi' in the form -- if they felt there was a problem."

Pap Calls Madonna's Camp Liars

MadonnaThe paparazzo who claims he was the only pap around when Madonna fell off her horse on Saturday says he isn't to blame for her fall -- and he claims Madonna's peeps are straight up lying about what went down.

We spoke with the photog who tells us he shot Madonna before and after she fell -- but was not there for the actual fall. He tells us he took pics of her riding and then left. About 30 minutes later, he says he got a tip about an ambulance being sent out for a 50-year-old woman -- so he put two and two together and went back to snap pics of her being tended to.

He says all his photos were taken from a public road and the only other photog around was Stephen Klein -- the famous photographer whose house Madonna was at.

As Hinton put it, "If I had startled the horse, I would have gotten pictures!"

Madonna Injured While Horseback Riding

MadonnaMadonna fell off her horse while horseback riding in the Hamptons this afternoon and was taken to a local hospital.

The Material Mom's injuries were not considered serious, the NY Post is reporting, but she was taken to the hospital for precautionary reasons.

Madonna was at the home of photographer Steven Klein at the time, according to the paper. She was reportedly wearing full riding gear, including a helmet, when she fell.

Back in 2005, Madonna fell while riding in London on her birthday -- she suffered several broken bones.

UPDATE -- Madonna's camp blames the whole incident on a paparazzo. Her rep released a statement that says, "Madonna who was thrown off a horse earlier today has just been released from Southampton Hospital with minor injuries and bruises ... The accident occurred when the horse Madonna was riding was startled by paparazzi who jumped out of the bushes to photograph the singer who was visiting friends on Eastern Long Island over the weekend. Madonna will be having further tests and continues to remain under observation by doctors."

Horsing Around with Mr. Big

WARNING: NOT SAFE FOR DINNER

Last night, for one member of the New York Police Department, doody called.


The police came to pinch off Manhattan hotspot The Plumm for overcrowding last night, but the real you-know-what hit the fan when a NYPD horse decided to mess right there on the sidewalk in front of the club. Various pedestrians were able to manure-vre around the pile, but one pretty filly literally stepped in it with her fancy stilettos. Officers actually asked our cameraman to view the moment again and again.

Incidentally, Chris Noth (aka Mr. Big, and one of the co-owners of The Plumm) came out to see if he could help get the club reopened, but he just couldn't do s**t.

Broderick Injured on a Horse -- Of Course Of Course

Matthew Broderick suffered a broken collar bone after falling off a horse.

Click here to return to TMZ.com

The mishap occurred Sunday while the "Ferris Bueller" star was horseback riding at his holiday home in Ireland. Broderick was treated at Sligo General Hospital Monday, accompanied by his wife, Sarah Jessica Parker.

Broderick was treated and released. The actor's publicist told TMZ "Matthew is in a little pain but is fine."

The area has been perilous for Broderick. In 1987, the actor suffered facial lacerations and a broken thigh when his rented BMW smashed head-on into another car in Northern Ireland.
