Around 3:20 p.m. on June 9, two dogs were found tied to a bench outside the building at 6790 Webster Street in Dayton, according to a media release from the Montgomery County ARC.

Officials said security cameras captured a woman exit a dark-colored SUV from the passenger side, remove the dogs from the vehicle, and tied them to a bench. The cameras didn’t capture the vehicle’s license plate.
