Unnamed male arrested after two dogs lost their precious lives inside a hot car

- Arizona, USA -

The Queen Creek Police Department arrested a 40-year-old male, whose name was not disclosed, after two innocent dogs were found lifeless inside a hot car.

On Friday, June 13, 2025, officers responded to a shopping complex near Signal Butte and Queen roads where “two dogs were found left in a parked vehicle for at least six hours, resulting in the death of both animals”, said police.

On Friday temperatures around the Valley reached as high as 104 degrees.

The arrestee was an employee of a nearby business. He was booked into jail and charged with two counts of animal cruelty.

No other details were given, and the investigation is ongoing.

I have reached out to the Queen Creek Police Department to inquire about the dogs and at the time of writing, I have not heard back.

I took the liberty of naming the furvictims Azure and Royal for the tribute image. Should their given names be made public, I will rectify them accordingly.
