CLARE COUNTY — Two people have been charged with child abuse after the Clare County Sheriff said they left a 5-year-old and a dog inside of a hot car.

The incident was reported to dispatch Wednesday afternoon.

The windows on the truck were down just a few inches, but the responding deputies noted that it was much hotter inside than outside and the child and dog seemed distressed.
