"Royal Hooves Unleashed: Chaos in London as Runaway Horses Leave 4 Injured"

"All of the horses have now been recovered and returned to camp," a British Army spokesperson confirmed to PEOPLE
Four people have been injured after multiple horses belonging to the Household Cavalry got loose during a "routine exercise" on the morning of April 24
The animals, stabled in Hyde Park Barracks, Knightsbridge, have now been returned and are being treated following the incident that occurred at approximately 8:25 a.m. local time, per the BBC.

“A number of military working horses became loose during routine exercise this morning. All of the horses have now been recovered and returned to camp," a spokesperson for the British Army said in a statement obtained by PEOPLE.
“A number of personnel and horses have been injured and are receiving the appropriate medical attention,” they added.

The Household Cavalry is the most senior regiment in the British Army and regularly takes part in major state occasions, such as the coronation of King Charles and the funeral of Queen Elizabeth.

The London Ambulance Service confirmed to PEOPLE that four people had been taken to hospital after receiving treatment at the three locations. The BBC reported that this happened within 10 minutes of paramedics being called to Buckingham Palace Road, Belgrave Square, and the junction between Chancery Lane and Fleet Street.

PEOPLE understands six soldiers and seven horses from the Life Guards were exercising in the upmarket Belgravia neighborhood of London when some of the horses got spooked by the sound of some construction concrete hitting the floor.
Five horses got loose, with four soldiers being dismounted and three injured. The injured soldiers are still being assessed in the hospital, but none of the conditions are life-threatening.

The Metropolitan Police didn't immediately respond when contacted by PEOPLE.
A cab driver named Robbie recalled seeing one of the horses covered in blood. "I was just outside Buckingham Palace on the Mall and heard loads of galloping and looked behind and there were about three or four horses," he told BBC Radio London.
