1. Prosecution for Cruelty to Police Dogs 
Two German Shepherd police dogs have died in the heatwave after being left in a car by their handler. The dogs were found dead in a police car parked outside Nottinghamshire's force headquarters in Arnold at 2.15pm on Tuesday 30th June 2009. It is believed the dogs' handler was not on duty at the time and had called in to the force's headquarters at Sherwood Lodge, leaving the dogs to over-heat in the parked car.
It is not known how long they were left in the car but temperatures in Nottingham hit 29.4C. The handler has not been suspended.
