A dog died after being left in a hot car for hours and its owner has been arrested, according to the Indian River County Sheriff's Office.
Harold Krages, 64 of Fellsmere, faces a charge of animal cruelty.
Krages was at Earl's lounge and told a deputy he left his dog in his car with a partially rolled down window.
The dog was inside the vehicle for more than three-and-a-half hour before it was discovered by bar patrons and taken inside, according to a police report. It died a short time later.
Krages was booked into the Indian River County Jail.
His bond was set at $10,000.
