An officer is responding to Walmart after a complaint of a dog locked inside a vehicle. It's a four-door gray Chevy Impala parked in the last aisle of the food entrance near a fire hydrant.
UPDATE 2:15 p.m.: The officer is on location with the vehicle and the complainant.

UPDATE 2:40 p.m.: Apparently the owner responded. The officer is back in service.
