Sheriff's K-9 missing

UPDATE:  The sheriff's department says K-9 Argo has now been located.

(WMDT)

WORCESTER CO., Md. – The Worcester County Sheriff’s Office is currently searching for a missing police K-9.

At around 6 a.m. Monday, a Worcester County Sheriff’s K-9 handler was allowing his K-9, Argo, to take a break in the area of the State Highway Administration in Berlin, located at the northeast corner of Route 50 and Route 113. During the break, Argo’s attention was reportedly drawn to a deer and he began chasing the deer.

There will be an increased presence of law enforcement and personnel in the area.

Argo is described as a 4-year-old black and tan German Sheppard, wearing a leather and prong collar. If you see Argo, you are asked to not approach him and contact the Worcester County Sheriff’s Office immediately at 410-632-1111. If you live in this area, you are asked to secure your outdoor pets inside until Argo is found.
