A police officer popped the door open and got the dog out of the vehicle, the website reported. “We took her out, poured water on her. She was a little stunned”. The dog’s owner returned to the auto 12 minutes later.

A few minutes later the owner, a 50-year-old Demarest woman, came back to her auto with shopping bags from the CVS across the street, the captain said.
