Invictus medallist in £1.7m injury claim filmed ‘walking dog'
Army chiefs are at war with an Invictus games winner who was 'caught on tape dog walking' despite making a £1.7 million court claim over an injury.
Debbie O'Connell, a former trainee with the King's Troop of the Royal Horse Artillery, has told a judge that her arm was left virtually useless after she fell from a mount.
O'Connell is said to have shattered her left collarbone in four places when she fell from a parade horse called Electra Jazz in 2015. She has told a hearing at the High Court that the injury left her with chronic arm and shoulder pain.
