Laocoon warned then not to trust the horse.
Yes, in Greek mythology, the priest Laocoon warned the Trojans about the wooden horse, expressing his suspicion that it was a deceptive gift from the Greeks. He famously declared, "Beware of Greeks bearing gifts." Laocoon's warnings were ultimately ignored, and he was famously punished by the gods, as serpents emerged from the sea to kill him and his sons, further underscoring the tragic fate of Troy.

There were lots of priests in Troy, but the one to which you are probably referring is Laocoön a priest of Poseidon. He was the one who tried to warn the Trojans about the horse.
Laocoon
The Trojans were not warned of the horse. In fact, they were deceived into believing the horse to be a gift from the defeated Greeks. Sinon, the deceiver, pretended to be angry. He claimed his fellow Greeks had deserted him when they left Troy. In fact, the Greeks had merely pretended to leave Troy in an attempt to trick the Trojans into a sense of false security. The plan worked. After the Trojans brought the horse within the walls of the city, the Greeks needed only to wait for the cover of darkness to attack from within the city.
Laocoon's advice was to not trust the Trojan Horse left by the Greeks outside the walls of Troy. He warned the Trojans that the horse was a trick and would lead to their downfall if brought inside the city.
In The Aeneid, Aeneas recounts his story of Troy to Dido. He tells her that Sinon, a Greek, helped to convince the Trojans to bring the horse into the city by telling them that it was made in honor of Minerva. Laocoon, the Trojan priest, hurled a spear at the horse and he and his two sons were eaten by serpents that rose out of the sea. The Trojans see this as Minerva's protection of the horse and believing it was a holy object, brought it into the city.
Apollo sided with the Trojans during the Trojan War primarily because of his support for the Trojan prince Hector and his desire to protect the city of Troy. Additionally, the goddess Aphrodite, who favored Paris and the Trojans, invoked Apollo's assistance after Paris abducted Helen, further solidifying his allegiance. Moreover, Apollo was insulted by Agamemnon's actions against his priest, Chryses, which fueled his animosity toward the Greek forces.
