A rookie K-9 officer flipped the script: Instead of tracking down someone, he helped a lost child find his way home.
It happened when someone called 911 when they saw a child wandering down the street alone.
When officers arrived, they could not figure out where the boy was from. They said he was nonverbal and couldn't communicate to them where he needed to go. So officers called in Remi.
Remi's handler, Deputy B. Belk, said he was not at all surprised at how quickly and effectively Remi got the child home. He has trained Remi since he was just 8 weeks old.
The child and his parents were successfully reunited and the parents will not face criminal charges in the case.
