Bodycam footage has captured the moment police officers smashed a window of a parked car to pluck a distressed dog to safety from the sweltering temperatures inside.
Officers broke into the vehicle after being alerted to the dog by concerned transport staff who had spotted the little black Shih Tzu barking and panting inside the locked vehicle.
While the car window had been left slightly open, it was feared it was not enough to stop the dog from collapsing as temperatures soared during this week's heatwave.
