The KPDA extends their thoughts and prayers to Deputy McLaughlin and his family.

Rest in peace to our beloved K9 Bandit. Deputy McLaughlin selected K9 Bandit from Von Liche Kennels in August 2017. They trained for 10 weeks with the WPD K9 Section before becoming fully certified by the KHP in October 2017. K9 Bandit was then certified with the Kansas Police Dog Association, most recently certifying as a dual-purpose patrol dog in April 2025.

K9 Bandit and Deputy McLaughlin were with the Andover Police Department from August 2017 to September 2023. K9 Bandit was purchased from the Andover Police Department and placed back with Deputy McLaughlin in December 2023, where he remained until his passing on May 18th 2025.
