Horses Perish in Rhode Island Blaze

    March 20, 2006
    The 13 horses were inside the barn.

    A devastating fire destroyed a Charlestown boarding stable late Saturday night.

    By the time crews arrived at the Old Coach Farm, they couldn't do much to save it.

    Firefighters had to pump in water from over a mile away because of a lack of hydrants.

    All 13 horses inside the barn died in the fire.
