K9 Canelo sniffs out narcotics

Madera County Sheriff’s Office K9 Deputy Eliza Hernandez responded to a suspicious vehicle parked on the 28000 block of Cholla Avenue on Thursday.

The driver, 38-year-old John Bartollome, appeared to be under the influence and became combative when contacted.

With support from additional deputies and the CHP, Deputy Hernandez safely detained Bartollome following a brief struggle.
