Police were forced to smash a car window to rescue a dog from scorching 115F (46C) temperatures in Sarasota, Florida.
Officers were called to a car park on University Parkway on Tuesday following reports of a dog locked inside a car.
A dog, appearing faint, was found inside with no trace of its owner. According to police, the temperature inside was 115F (46C).
Matthew Grochowski, an officer for the Sarasota Police Department, was filmed smashing the window of the car in body camera footage of the incident, shared to Facebook on Friday.
“It’s panting and and drooling all over the place”, the officer says in the footage.
“Oh my god he’s starting to go down, that’s not good,” another officer, from the Sarasota County Sheriff’s Office Animal Services, adds.
With the backing of Sgt Louis Buck, the officer was filmed striking a back window of the car, and smashed it on the third try, with glass falling to the floor.
“It’s OK buddy,” the officer tells the dog, which appeared to be a form of pit bull. “Come on, good boy.”
The dog was taken from the back of the car, and into an awaiting kennel by Sarasota animal services.
Following the incident, the Sarasota Police Department issued a warning for dog owners not to lock animals inside cars.
“Please don’t leave pets in hot cars,” said the post, “[and] always remember to look before you lock for pets, children and elderly loved ones.”
The owner of the dog was issued with two citations by Animal Services, who returned the dog.
Elton John Says Michael Jackson Was A ‘Disturbing Person To Be Around’
Michael Jackson was once called a “disturbing person to be around” by Elton John.
Some musicians could only dream of having careers in music like John and Jackson’s, and occasionally their lives even overlapped.
The 77-year-old singer of “I’m Still Standing” made startling remarks about the King of Pop, who passed away in 2009 at the age of 50, in his 2019 biography “Me.”
John said that he had known Jackson “since he was 13 or 14” and that the singer was “the most adorable kid you could imagine” in an incredible clip that was obtained by Radar Online.
He says that when Jackson’s mental state deteriorated, especially in his later years, he started to retreat from reality, and that’s when things changed.
The vocalist of “Rocket Man” came to the conclusion that Jackson had “totally lost his marbles” by the 2000s.
John, meanwhile, is adamant that Jackson’s problems started far earlier.
John claimed that on a lunch date in the 1990s, he saw the pop legend looked unwell, covered in plaster and cosmetics. The singer was named Billy Jean.
John said, “The poor guy looked awful, really frail and ill.”
The “Rocket Man” singer claimed that when Jackson left the table “without a word,” the lunch took a bad turn.
According to People, he completed half of his four-year prison sentence.
Insinuating that Jackson was addicted to painkillers, John said, “What prescription drugs he was being pumped full of?”
According to John, Jackson was later discovered “quietly playing games” with her 11-year-old kid in the housekeeper’s cottage.
John enumerated his impressions of Jackson elsewhere in the narrative, asserting: “He
Despite having millions of admirers worldwide, Jackson’s legacy took a hit after accusations surfaced in the 2019 documentary Leaving Neverland.
The documentary, which was shot and produced by Dan Reed, centers on Wade Robson and James Safechuck, who claim that Jackson sexually molested them while they were kids.
The Jackson family discussed the claims that the “Thriller” singer sexually molested young children at his Neverland Ranch with Gayle King on CBS This Morning after the film Leaving Neverland was released.
Robson and Safechuck, according to the Jackson family, came forward asking for money.
Marlon Jackson, the brother of the singer, said: “I want people to know and understand that this documentary is not portraying the truth. Not a single piece of evidence has been found to support their account.
On June 25, 2009, Jackson passed away as a result of a deadly mix of prescription medications.
According to ABC News, the Los Angeles coroner’s office stated that the singer passed away from acute propofol intoxication, with the benzodiazepine effect being mentioned as a contributing factor.
Jackson’s mode of death was similarly determined by the coroner to be murder.
In 2011, Conrad Murray, Jackson’s personal physician, was found guilty of involuntary manslaughter.
