Incident Date: 07/17/2024 Incident Time: 9:53 Activation Date: 07/17/2024 Activation Time: 9:53 Official: Windber Borough Police County: Somerset City: Windber Borough Number Helped: 1 Synopsis: CART was requested to transport and foster a dog that belonged to an individual who was being arrested. Description: A woman with a service dog was at Windber Hospital. She alledgedly had multiple warrants and was arrested by Sheriff's Deputies and transported to Somerset County Jail. We responded and initially transported the dog to Johnstown to a friend that said he could take the dog. In discussions with him, he was unable to take it, so we transported it to our kennel in Meyersdale. Later that day, we were contacted by the jail and told the woman was being released and she was given our number to make arrangements to get her dog back. Upon discussion with her, it was determined she was handicapped (she used a walker), she had no transportation, and she had no one to call to pick her up. She was in Somerset and she had been staying in Cambria County. We decided the only solution was to transport her and her dog back to her temporary housing.
