The Erath County Sheriff’s Office is aware of the smoke in the air today. This is because a cool front has passed through and changed the wind direction to blow from north to south.

The smoke you are seeing and smelling is from the Ross Fire in Palo Pinto County.

Please DO NOT call 911 unless you actually see a fire in Erath County.

Texas Game Warden K9 Lola, her handler and a pilot with our Unmanned Aircraft Systems Program assisted local and state law enforcement partners in Erath County today following an escape from the jail.

Starting from the suspect’s discarded pants, Lola followed his scent for more than a mile, across streets, past businesses and down alleys, until they reached the Bosque River. Turns out, ditching your pants doesn’t equal ditching your scent when you have a pro like K9 Lola on your trail.

She easily led her handler to the suspect on the other side of the river. He was subsequently taken back into custody by the Erath County Sheriff’s Office.

Outstanding work by everyone involved in bringing the incident to a safe conclusion. (And yes, Lola got a bath.)
