Tales From the Vault - Drunk Rides Horse Into Bank

Tales From the Vault - Drunk Rides Horse Into Bank


Having had one too many drinks for the road at his local bar, a German equestrian decided to sleep it off for the night by riding his horse into a bank foyer. Wolfgang Heinrich, 40, had been out riding his horse Sammy in April 2007 when he stopped to have a drink with friends but on leaving the bar he realised he was too drunk to ride all the way back to his home in Wiesenburg. 

So, keen to get out of the cold, he decided to use his bank card to open up a nearby bank foyer and take himself and Sammy inside for the night. Heinrich was found fast asleep with his horse by customer Stephen Hanelt who went to the bank to withdraw money early the following morning. "It was a bit of a shock to find a man and a horse asleep in the foyer of the bank," said Herr Hanelt. "I rang the police straight away." Heinrich was let off with a warning, but bank staff were less impressed when they had to clean up after the horse, who had left a deposit of his own on the floor of the foyer.
