Good Samaritans help save dog that had been tied to train tracks in Everett

Casino workers save dog that had been tied to train tracks in Everett (Everett Animal Control)

A dog who had seemingly been tied to train tracks in Everett is safe and sound due to the intervention of two bystanders near Encore Casino.

Two people noticed the tiny dog lingering near MBTA Commuter Rail tracks in a secluded spot behind the casino on Tuesday, said Everett Animal Control.

Officials say the two workers also noticed that the dog’s leash had seemingly been attached to the tracks but that the dog had chewed through it.

With the help of Everett firefighters, animal control was able to reach the area and save the dog. Everett police also helped by tracking the incoming trains.

Anyone who has any information on the situation or saw anything suspicious is asked to call Everett Police at 617-387-1212 or email Stacia.gorgone@cityofeverett.org
