If this article is to be believed, he left his car running at idle speed for SIX HOURS while he was in the police station. But he did not turn on the air conditioner.

Hard to find any explanation but sheer idiocy.

Hope he doesn't have little kids.

It also has to be believed that no police officer or an employee or a visitor coming in or out paid any attention to the running car, and to the dog locked inside. In other words, nobody cares what's happening around the police station - there are no cameras and nobody is looking. We should only hope that those ISIL fellows that cross the border from Mexico don't know how to rent a Ryder truck.

So he not only killed the dog, he wasted 6 hours of gasoline as well?

IMHO, the dog wouldn’t die in 86 degree weather. Should’ve left the windows cracked.
