Event:  Trapped Puppy

Police were called to the area for a puppy trapped in a storm drain.  Officers quickly determined the puppy was actually in the sewer line.   Animal Control Officer Jacob Gonzales was able to get inside the sewer line enough to see the puppy.

After several minutes of puppy negotiations, Gonzales was able to take her safely out.  The puppy, a Lab mix was uninjured.  According to Lt. W. Broyles, “Jacob did an outstanding job getting inside the sewer line and rescuing this puppy.”
