A couple of police officers were shocked to find someone tied a dog to a post and left it just hours before Hurricane Milton made landfall. The Florida Highway Patrol discovered that the dog's owners abandoned it as the deadly storm approached.

The dog that was found tied to a fence on a Florida highway during evacuations ahead of Hurricane Milton is rehabilitating at an animal rescue facility in Tallahassee, according to a representative from the Leon County Humane Society.
