Recently on the news, there was talk about a rottweiler that took down, and killed a horse. (Not a pony- a horse)

How do dogs do this? The horse is an animal that weighs over 1,000 lbs, and the rottweiler probably weighed 100 lbs. How are dogs capable of killing horses by themself?

I'm guessing this is either a stray dog that was starving and it's instinct kicked in and caught the horse off gaurd or the horse kicked the dog and some how was able to go for it's throat because if it had bit the horse anywhere else the horse would either run like crazy if it was able or fight back and anyone that has either been kicked by a horse or known someone that has knows they pack a wallop.
