Two small tan Chihuahua dogs found in a plastic bag that was tossed in a dumpster recently succumbed to their injuries.
Police first learned of the dogs after employees at a business near the dumpster heard noises in the vicinity. When they went to check things out, the dogs were discovered.
The kind people rushed the dogs to a nearby animal hospital for treatment. In the meantime, police launched an investigation to find the person or persons responsible for this atrocious crime.
