Beware feeding potatoes to horses can be lethal - Appeal for information

A recent post on social media platform Facebook revealed a member of the public against another member of public to stop feeding horses potatoes in the Barnehurst area last week and refused to do so.

What is normal for humans to eat, potatoes can be lethal to horses, in this case causing them to get colic and face a hefty vet bill!

This is an appeal for information if this person or anyone who knows this person in the photo below (taken from the facebook post) to contact the original poster asap. Thank you for your cooperation.
