translated from Spanish: Perrita is cruelly run over by UBER driver in Monterrey

After her one-year-old dog was run over by an Uber driver, a woman sought to report the person responsible to the authorities, but ignored her. A 911 operator, a Monterrey Police officer, and a CODE guidance officer, told her that she could not report the abuse of an animal. The pet’s run-in, called Cruela, was recorded at around 11:40 hours in the Colonia Luis Echeverría.An Uber unit that had been called by a neighbor of the affected, a Nissan Versa with SUC8852 plates, did not stop at the animal that was lying in the middle of the street. A video from the surveillance camera system shows that the driver did not brake when he passed his front tire on the left side over the pet’s body.” They’re building a room in my house and the mason left open, she got out,” Marisela Silva said.

The driver claimed that the animal went through her and withdrew, but when she checked the cameras, the owner discovered that it was possibly intentional. The woman called 911 to make a report, but the operator told her that this emergency number does not have that function, Silva said.At the insistence of the affected, she added, a Police patrol of Monterrey was sent, but the officer who attended her assured her that he knew nothing about laws protecting animals. He later called the CODE number to ask for reports on how to file a complaint for the crime of animal abuse, but the guiding officer told him that the Prosecutor’s Office was not protecting the animals, he said. The dog was attended by a veterinarian, he stated, and will be under observation for 24 hours because some of his organs were possibly damaged.
