Brave police horse Tobruk has been spoiled with carrots, apples and black liquorice treats after being punched by a protester during Sydney's anti-lockdown rally. Tobruk and his rider were managing thousands of demonstrators who marched in the city's CBD in protest against the city's lockdown on Saturday. In the midst of the chaos, a man approached the mounted policeman and allegedly struck the 13-year-old thoroughbred, which emerged from the incident uninjured. Tobruk's rider, Senior Constable Patrick Condon, (left) said his beloved horse Tobruk had received carrots, apples, chocolate and liquorice from grateful Sydneysiders Other anti-lockdown protestors hurled flower pots at mounted officers, covering them with soil, and another policeman was splattered with dark ink.
