Franklin County Sheriff’s Dept. K9 Dies From Medical Issue<\/p>\n
The Franklin County Sheriff\u2019s Department is mourning the loss of its K9 officer. Max, the police dog, died on Tuesday, May 14 in the presence of his handler, Sgt. Adam Henson. Max\u2019s death was caused by an ongoing medical issue, according to the sheriff\u2019s department. \u201cThis loss has effected the agency and community a whole, and Max will be dearly missed,\u201d said sheriff Peter Cates. The five-year-old Belgian Malinois was removed from active duty in January because of the health issue. He was under veterinarian care. In his time sniffing out crime in Franklin County, Max was responsible for multiple drug related arrest as well as many suspect apprehensions. Last year, Max and the sheriff’s department’s K9 unit received a Whitewater Valley REMC Community Trust grant. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
