The North Judson Police Department’s K-9 officer, Gunner, was re-certified last week according to North Judson Town Marshal Kelly Fisher. She mentioned his re-certification during her department report during the North Judson Town Council meeting on Monday night.

She also informed the council that on September 29th, three police departments joined forces to conduct a sweep through the North Judson High School building and parking lot to see if any drugs or other illegal substances were on the property.

Fisher said the North Judson Police Department’s reserve officer Scott Beishuizen was on the scene with his K-9, Gunner. The Hobart Police Department’s Matt Dasel assisted with their K-9, Jack and Knox City Police Officer Chad Dulin had K-9 Odell there to help as well.

The K-9 officers were walked through the premises and conducted thorough “sniff-tests” of the cars and lockers. Nothing was found and the schools were determined to be drug-free thanks to K-9 officers Odell, Jack and Gunner and their handlers from the Hobart, North Judson and Knox Police Departments.
