FORT WORTH, Texas (AP) — Seven puppies have died after flying in the cargo hold of an American Airlines jet.
American says it contacted the shipper who put the puppies on a Tuesday morning flight from Tulsa, Okla., to Chicago, and is investigating further.
Airline spokeswoman Mary Frances ***an said Wednesday the shipper put 14 puppies aboard Flight 851, which was scheduled to leave Tulsa at 6:30 a.m. but was delayed an hour by storms in Chicago. As the plane sat on the tarmac in Tulsa, it was already 86 degrees before 7 a.m., according to the National Weather Service.
***an said baggage handlers taking the puppies to a kennel area at O'Hare Airport grew concerned because they looked lethargic.
Employees tried to cool down the dogs, and they were taken to a vet's office, but five died initially and two others died later, ***an said.
