It is with profound sadness that we share the sudden passing of ๏ฟผK-9 Kuko. Kuko was an Explosives Detection K-9 assigned to our Aviation Division with his handler, Officer Janiszeski. Kuko served the NFTA Police Department with unwavering loyalty and dedication. Please keep Officer Janiszeski and his family in your thoughts during this difficult time.

Matt said he had run out of gas, and when he reached for his phone to call for help, it was dead. Matt said that cars passed and no one stopped, until someone did.

We'd like to give a special shout-out to Lt. Michael Fontana...

Recently, we heard from someone who found himself in a dire roadside situation in the southtowns. This person says Lt. Fontana "stopped to assist me in my time of need."

"He was a gentleman and a class act. Not only did he help me when he didn't have to, but he also prevented me from, more than likely, freezing to death. I never do things like this, but Lt. Fontana deserves some form of recognition for not just being a good officer, but also for being a great human."

Thank you, Lt. Fontana! ๐Ÿ‘ฎโ€โ™‚๏ธ
