2 Dogs Found In Trash Can

WASHINGTON (AP) -- The Washington Humane Society says two dogs were found in a trash can in southeast Washington, one of them dead and the other seriously injured.

The Washington Post reports the dogs were found Sunday in an alley behind the 3900-block of R Street. The seriously injured dog, a female, was paralyzed and had to be euthanized. The other dog, which was found dead, had a swollen front leg and a crescent-shaped scar on its rear right thigh.

The society is offering a $2,000 reward for information leading to an arrest in the case.
