Officials say a freezer containing the remains of two dogs awaiting cremation was stolen from a Florida veterinarian's office.
According to the Bradenton Herald, video surveillance showed a man driving away from the Bradenton Veterinary Hospital last week with its outdoor freezer in the back of his pickup truck.
Office manager Kathy Richardson said she hopes the remains of the two dogs will be returned. Staff searched garbage cans and dumpsters in the area, but they did not find the carcasses.
Richardson said the dogs' owners were distraught to learn that the remains of their pets had been stolen.
Police are investigating the theft.
