Victoria BC - VicPD’s
Police Service Dog Uno and his partner scored a win with a successful track and
arrest of two young offenders who had broken into vehicles parked at the
Wardroom at CFB Esquimalt.
VicPD was asked to help after
reports of a break in to a vehicle parked at the Wardroom just after 2 a.m. on
Sunday morning. Two individuals were scared off by Commissionaires when
they located the theft in progress in the parking lot. They ran towards Lyall
Street as the witness tried to keep them in sight.
Uno and his partner were called
into action by the Military Police who were already on scene looking for the
culprits.
The track took the K9 team
around numerous buildings and through numerous parked cars until finally ending
up in a drainage ditch, where the two suspects were hiding.
The pair was arrested without
incident, admitted their involvement and were found with the property taken
from the car.
