A woman was dragged to her death while walking a horse Friday morning in western Minnesota, according to the Otter Tail County Sheriff's Office.
A 911 caller said the 47-year-old Fargo woman was at a home in the 38000 block of Beaver Dam Road, which is on the eastern shore of Star Lake about 30 miles northeast of Fergus Falls.
The caller said the woman "had been [dragged] a long distance by a horse," leaving her unresponsive.
It appeared the horse's lead became wrapped around the woman's arm, officials said.
The Sheriff's Office hasn't identified the woman.
