It happened right in the parking lot of the DMV. An alert observer saw two dogs inside two cars, and reported it. Police in South Salt Lake came immediately. They opened the car doors and tried rescuing the dogs; unfortunately, they were not in time of one of them.

A chihuahua had become so overheated that it suffered damage; and its back legs are now paralyzed. The tiny pooch was taken from its owner.
