HIBBING, MN (KDAL) – In just their second week on the job, the new St. Louis County Sheriff Department K-9 team helped in successfully tracking down a man with a felony warrant who fled on foot from Hibbing Police.
Deputy Marty Thome and K-9 Thor completed their 14 week training period in late June with certification in both narcotics detection and patrol duties such as finding people and evidence.
This newest K-9 team is based in Hibbing and will primarily serve in the northern part of the county.
Thor’s purchase and training was funded in part from the AMSOIL Northland K-9 Foundation.
