Last night a traffic stop was conducted for a VC violation. The Officer located a fire extinguisher in the vehicle. K9 Otis was alerted to it. Approx. 50,000 Fentanyl pills were located inside the extinguisher. The driver was arrested for possession of narcotics for sales.

Fun fact: K9’s have 225 million scent receptors, compared to 5 million in humans. The ability to differentiate scent and follow that direction. The portion of a K9’s brain that is dedicated to identifying & remembering scents is 40 times larger than that of humans.
