Maryland State trooper rescues dog left in hot car on I-495
COLLEGE PARK, Md. – A Maryland State trooper is being hailed after rescuing a dog from a hot car on the side of I-495 Tuesday.
According to the Maryland State Police, Trooper Shane McGregor assisted the College Park barrack with a reported dog left in a hot car on the shoulder of I-495 near the Baltimore-Washington Parkway.
Troopers saw the dog alone in a car that wasn’t running and the windows were rolled up.
Temperatures across the DMV were 100 degrees and humidity pushed the heat index even higher, FOX 5 meteorologists noted.
The dog was showing obvious signs of heat exhaustion and needed immediate care.
Trooper McGregor got the dog out of the car, gave him water and put him in a cooled patrol car.
“After a few minutes, the dog started to perk up and showed signs of improvement!” Maryland State Police said.
They say the dog then enjoyed exploring the inside of our cruisers while animal control was contacted.

BALTIMORE COUNTY, MD — Maryland State Del. Nino Mangione was picked over the weekend to serve as the County Council’s newest member.
The move came Saturday, when the two-person Baltimore County Republican Central Committee held a public hearing and a vote at the Holiday Inn Timonium.
Mangione was one of seven candidates vying to fill the 3rd District seat left vacant in May by Councilman Wade Kach, who resigned due to health issues after serving on the County Council for more than 11 years.
Other candidates who competed for the 3rd District seat included Todd Huff, Lynne Jones, Tim Braue, Eric Rockel, Gerard Wittstadt, and E.J. McNulty.
Mangione was the only figure who simultaneously ran for a council seat in this year’s election bid. He is also running as a 5th District candidate, which includes most of the current 3rd District.
The county is operating under a new redistricting map that was approved for the 2026 election cycle last year. The map was passed in a 5-2 vote.
Baltimore County will hold its primary election on June 23.
