CORAL GABLES, FLA. (WSVN) - A South Florida police dog will be a little safer when patrolling the streets, thanks to a nonprofit organization.
Roy, a Coral Gables Police K-9, is set to receive a bulletproof and stab-proof vest. The 5-year-old Belgian Malinois is a certified in apprehension and narcotics detection.
The protective garment is a donation from the nonprofit organization Vested Interest in K-9s, honoring fallen Coral Gables Officer Walter F. Stathers.
