Stray voltage may have caused fatal Central Park horse carriage crash, union argues

The Transport Workers Union (TWU) Local 100 claims stray voltage in Central Park's Cherry Hill area caused a horse to bolt, leading to the death of 18-year-old tourist Romanch Mahajan. Con Edison addressed the electrical issue after being notified by stable owner Cornelius Byrne, while City Council debates a proposed ban on horse-drawn carriages through 'Romanch’s Law' by 2028.
