Update to Officer Down

I posted on Officer Jason Ellis death in the line of duty. Here is a picture that will get to you. From The German Shepherd Dog Communityon Facebook.


Officer Jason Ellis was ambushed Saturday while trying to help motorists. He was set up to move some debris off of an exit ramp which posed a traffic hazard and shot multiple times with a shotgun. He was the K-9 handler for the Bardstown PD in Bardstown, KY...here is his partner, K-9 Figo paying one last tribute. Forever loyal. Forever faithful.

RIP Officer Ellis. Our hearts go out to his family, friends, co-workers, and K-9 partner. The city of Bardstown is allowing the young dog to retire and remain with the family he knows and loves. K-9 Figo will keep watch over Ellis' widow, Amy, and his two sons, ages 6 and 7....just the way that Officer Jason Ellis would have wanted him to.

The reward fund for information leading to the capture of the murderer is over $100,000.
