Anna Grace King had been leading the horse on foot in a training session on her family's farm in the 190 block of Snake Lane in Kinzers, when it became spooked — entangling her in its reins — dragging her down the road on Tuesday, June 25, according to the coroner's office.
What happened next isn't entirely clear but soon she was taken to Penn Medicine Lancaster General Hospital where "resuscitation efforts" had failed, Bieber explained. The coroner's office was called to the trauma bay at 11:49 a.m., she was pronounced dead shortly beforehand at 11:35 a.m.
Her manner of death was multiple traumatic injuries and the manner was ruled accidental, the report stated.
Anna's name wasn't initially released but public records show the farm is owned by the King family and an Amish King girl's obituary was published the day after her passing. The coroner confirmed her identity in July.
Anna was a member of the Old Order Amish Church, according to her obituary. She is survived by her parents Ivan and Mary S. Lantz King and five brothers.
Her funeral service was held at her home on Thursday, June 27 and she was buried in the Spring Garden Amish Cemetery.
