Recently, members of the Cleveland Division of Police K-9 and N.I.C.E. Units, assigned to the U.S. Marshals Northern Ohio Violent Fugitive Task Force, participated in Active Shooter Response Training provided by the Ohio Tactical Officers Association (OTOA) and funded by the Ohio Attorney General’s Office.

Officers from agencies across Northeast Ohio trained together to strengthen communication, teamwork, and response during critical incidents. These skills are invaluable—not only to the Task Force, but also to the communities our officers return to and serve every day.

A huge thank you to OTOA and the Ohio Attorney General’s Office for making this important training possible!

When everyone else hears “Labor Day” and thinks cookouts, relaxing, and a day off…

Our K-9s just hear “LABOR.” 😂🐕‍🦺🚔

Somebody has to keep an eye on the city while the burgers are on the grill! 🌭🍔

We hope everyone had a safe and enjoyable Labor Day weekend. And a special thank you to all of the first responders, dispatchers, healthcare workers, military members, and everyone else who spent part of the holiday on the clock.

Apparently, our four-legged officers would also like to file a grievance regarding the holiday work schedule. 🐾😂

Stay safe, Cleveland!

Guns, Drugs, and Money Oh my…
It’s been a busy summer and the members of the Canine Unit have still been working hard assisting Officers and Detectives across the Five Districts. Check out the follow following seizure from a recent search warrant where one of our pups alerted to 45 grams of crack co***ne. On August 27, detectives with the 5th District Vice Unit executed a Cuyahoga County search warrant in the 5th District.

Members received information regarding suspected drug activity in the area, which led to an investigation. During the ex*****on of the search warrant, detectives seized five fi****ms, approximately 45 grams of crack co***ne, ma*****na, pills, and $1,544 in cash.

This successful investigation was made possible through information provided by our community and the diligent investigative work of our detectives. Community tips play a vital role in helping law enforcement identify and address illegal activity in our neighborhoods.

As a result of the investigation, one male was arrested for
Drug Trafficking and Having Weapons While Under Disability.
