K9 Hannes searched the area in temperatures well above 100 degrees for about 15 minutes before one of the suspects was observed and ran from officers. The man was taken into custody by deputies a short time later.
Shortly after the search K9 Hannes began showing symptoms of heatstroke and was rushed to an emergency animal hospital. He passed away a short time later.
K9 Hannes had served with the Kern County Sheriff’s Office for 1-1/2 years.
