BELOIT — The death of a dog left in a hot vehicle in Beloit means the arrest of a Wausau woman.

Beloit police say 24-year-old Anisha butalla was reportedly attending a court matter in Janesville while a 2-year-old pit bull was left for nearly four hours in a car in the Wal-Mart parking lot.

Police tried to contact the owner of the car, but were successful, so they broke the windows in the car to rescue the dog. The dog died at the scene.

Butalla was arrested for felony mistreating an animal, resulting in death.

There's no park and ride from Wal-mart to the court house...is there??? noooo. Maybe met a friend to take her to court...why not park car by friends house? Why not leave dog by friends house??? Oh friend can't have dog in the house...well chain is up out side. Don't leave it in the car

The book needs to be thrown at her. You wouldn't leave a child in a vehicle with windows rolled up. So why in the world would you leave an animal. At least people with a brain wouldn't. I know there are poeple out there that have left children in vehicle's with no fresh air. They don't have a brain or one that has working cells...
