Sad X3.
An officer named Sergeant Ian Craven is said to have forgotten about the Belgian Malanois and German Shepherd, and left them in the car parked outside a suburban London training center.
According to Reuters, the temperature was close to 86 degrees Fahrenheit. Although they were rushed to an emergency vet after they were found, both dogs died.
The Toronto Star alleges that when Sergeant Ian Craven learned the two dogs had died, he was devastated and attempted suicide by cutting his wrists, but the police have not confirmed this claim.
A Scotland Yard spokesman said that a police officer left his duty posting, and was treated as a missing person. When he was found, he had a hand injury and was taken to a hospital.
The Star reports that that in 2004, Craven, a 30-year veteran of the force, allegedly left a spaniel in a car, which also died.
