Our newest K9 dog, Deebo, makes his debut with a great capture of two burglary suspects. On March 12th, around 1:30 a.m., a homeowner called 911, reporting that he could see burglars on his property on surveillance cameras, and they were actively using crowbars and tools to break into his attached garage. Deputies and K9 Deebo arrived at the home in the 13000 block of Waller Rd. E. They could hear the suspects on the property. Once announcements were made, two suspects quickly run out the back of the home and try to escape into the woods. One 57-year-old suspect gave up after learning K9 Deebo was there, but there was still another suspect outstanding. K9 Deebo begins a nearly 40-minute-long K9 track and starts out finding a tool bag that was dropped by the outstanding suspect. During the track, several fences had to be jumped, and multiple bodies of water had to be crossed. K9 Deebo finally comes to a stop when branches could be heard breaking nearby. A 47-year-old male suspect was located and taken into custody. Both suspects were booked into the Pierce County Jail for residential burglary, obstruction, unlawful possession of a controlled substance, and possession of burglary tools. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Hopefully, we will see more of K9 Deebo and all the great work he and his handler are doing. Great work to all involved. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
