Missouri officer being charged with the death of his K9 partner.
Horus, a K9 officer with the Savannah, MO police department lost his life on June 20th due to being left inside of a hot car.
Lt. Daniel Zeigler is now facing charges of animal abuse.
According to reports, Lt. Ziegler forgot to remove Horus from his vehicle on the morning of June 20th after the two had completed an overnight shift. The cruiser has a safety feature that causes the windows to roll down and the horn to honk when the interior temperature reaches 90 degrees. The feature was tested after the incident and shown to work, however, it had been turned off at the time of the canine officer's death.
Witnesses reported seeing Horus laying on the ground next to the cruiser as Zeigler could be heard shouting he thought he had brought Horus inside at the end of their shift.
There is no further information concerning Zeigler's charges or when he may be in court.
