(ST. JOSEPH, Mo.) While the past week has been tough for the St. Joseph Police Department, they say they’ve found comfort in relying on each other.
"It’s been a bit somber, but very supportive." Sgt. Roy Hoskins, SJPD said. "That's something that we pride ourselves on is internal support of each other."
The department is still mourning the loss of Max, the K-9 officer killed in the line of duty last week.
"People in general love dogs to begin with," Hoskins said. "Police dogs are very special."
