SAN ANTONIO \u2013 Two women were arrested Wednesday afternoon after police found three dead dogs inside a parked van at a storage facility on the North Side.<\/p>\n
Kristine Elaigh Urquidez and Brittany Samantha Urquidez are both facing three animal cruelty charges. Kristine also faces a drunken driving charge, while Brittany was arrested for public intoxication.<\/p>\n
Officers responded around 4 p.m. to a storage facility on Blanco Road near Loop 410 after someone reported seeing two women sleeping inside a pickup truck for several hours.<\/p>\n
According to an arrest report, officers found Kristine behind the wheel and Brittany in the passenger seat. Both appeared heavily drowsy, and police suspected they were intoxicated.<\/p>\n
During the investigation, the women told officers they had dogs inside a nearby GMC van and asked whether someone could pick them up.<\/p>\n
When an officer checked the van, he noticed it was not running and its windows were covered with blankets.<\/p>\n
Inside, police discovered three dogs that were not moving or breathing. All three appeared to be dead.<\/p>\n
Investigators believe the dogs died after being left inside the van without air conditioning while the women were intoxicated.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"SAN ANTONIO \u2013 Two women were arrested Wednesday afternoon after police found three dead dogs inside a parked…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":474645,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[8],"tags":[82,84,83],"class_list":["post-474644","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-san-antonio","tag-san-antonio","tag-san-antonio-headlines","tag-san-antonio-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/474644","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=474644"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/474644\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/474645"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=474644"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=474644"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=474644"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
