The Deschutes County Sheriff's Office Has Lost An Officer

It wasn't human, however.

Deschutes County Sheriff's Office K-9 Koda has died in an unfortunate sequence of events, the agency reported Wednesday.

The 2-year-old dog, a Belgian Malinois, died earlier this week while Koda and his handler were off-duty, visiting out of the area, said sheriff's Capt. Tim Edwards, who announced the news "with great sadness" in a press release.
[...]
While his handler was away, Koda forced his way out of the kennel and consumed a large amount of dog food being stored in the car, Edwards said.

Koda then proceeded to eat the seats of the car, ingesting foam from the car seats, Edwards said.

Wow that is pretty unfortuanate. I almost feel more sorry when one of the K-9 units pass away then the handlers.

The tragic story of Koda made the "weird news" department in media all over the country. He is gone, but not forgotten.
