State police K-9 units locate two suspects
Two state police K-9 units located suspects in separate cases earlier this week, according to the Massachusetts State Police.
K-9 Titan helped locate a patient released from Providence Hospital in Holyoke.
After Brookfield police responded to a report Sunday night of a vehicle that had crashed into a snowbank, officers requested K-9 assistance to help look for the driver in the cold weather. K-9 Kato soon found a man lying face down in the snow a few hundred yards from the crash. The man was charged with operating under the influence of alcohol, according to police.
On Monday, K-9 Titan was brought to Providence Hospital in Holyoke after a patient with multiple warrants fled. Titan found the suspect in the woods near the hospital, according to police, and the suspect was taken into custody.
