ICSO welcome three new K9s
IMPERIAL COUNTY, Calif. (KYMA, KECY) - The imperial County Sheriff's Office (ICSO) is welcoming three new members to the team and they're not your average deputies.
ICSO has introduced three new K9s that will assist in the fight against crime throughout the county.
Each K-9 will serve in a specialized role helping patrol deputies and correctional officers detect and remove illegal narcotics.
"Our three patrol canines are single-purpose narcotics dogs: They're helping get fentanyl, cocaine, and other drugs off the streets by being proactive during traffic stops throughout the county. We also have a corrections K-9 working in the facility to detect drugs that may somehow make it inside," said Sgt. Emilio Cotero with ICSO.
The K9s are already on duty.
