FRANKFURT, Germany—German police say 20 people were injured, two of them seriously, when two horse-drawn carriages collided during a Christmas Day outing.

The DPA news agency quoted police in southern Bavaria as saying the two carriages, each with 10 passengers, were approaching a rail crossing single file when the first carriage halted. The second did not and overturned during the collision.
