Update 🚨 owner redeemed white dog. Dogs are not bonded, apparently they just decided they were newly found best friends !

🐾🚔 FOUND DOGS – NOT UNDER ARREST (YET) 🚔🐾

These two gentlemen were located running together near Earl Rd NW and were taken into protective custody by officers after repeatedly refusing to provide identification.

The pair appears to be working as a team and is believed to be involved in multiple counts of:
🐾 Loitering
🐾 Excessive tail wagging
🐾 Public displays of good-boy behavior
🐾 Resisting capture by being adorable

Both are male and appear to be a bonded pair. They are currently being housed at the Police Department, where they have already begun negotiating for treats and belly rubs.

If these suspects belong to you, please contact the Massillon Police Department and be prepared to provide proof of ownership. Bail will be accepted in the form of dog treats and a valid explanation as to how these escape artists ended up on Earl Rd NW.

Please share this post and help us reunite these boys with their family before they convince our officers to take them home. 🐶❤️

Hi. Yes. Hello. It’s me.

I was out conducting very important business on the northwest side (sniffing things, mostly), when I somehow misplaced my human. Honestly, not my best work.

Some nice police officers picked me up and are currently giving me a safe place to hang out while we figure out where my human wandered off to.

If you are my human:
👉 You forgot something. Me.
👉 I am adorable and you probably miss me.
👉 Come get me. Immediately.

If you know my human, please tell them I am safe at the police department and waiting patiently (okay… semi-patiently).

📞 Call: [330-832-9811]
📍 Location: [Massillon Police Department ]

Let’s fix this little mix-up and get me back to my couch. 🐶🛋️

— Signed,
A very good dog who definitely did nothing wrong

Good Afternoon All, As some of you may have seen, there has been an officer involved shooting at/near the White House. This post serves as a letter to parents of our students currently on the Washington DC trip. All students and chaperones are ok and accounted for. The group was not in the area at the time of the shooting. Thank you everyone!

The active and retired members of the Fraternal Order of Police Henderson Lodge #105 are respectfully requesting donations for our Annual Eric Taylor Memorial Golf Outing from businesses as well as individuals.

Patrolman Eric Taylor #91 was tragically killed on August 9th, 2002, following a vehicle and foot pursuit of a suspect near Cherry Road NW and First Street NW. The pursuit began when a state trooper made a traffic stop on SR21 and Edwards RD in Doylestown. The suspect opened fire on the trooper and fled. After the suspect’s vehicle became stuck in a field, Officer Taylor exited his patrol vehicle and was shot by the suspect almost immediately. The suspect then fled on foot, continuing to exchange fire with other officers. Both Patrolman Taylor and the suspect were fatally wounded. Patrolman Taylor had proudly served with the Massillon Police Department for four years.

We are currently seeking donations in the form of monetary contributions or physical items, such as gift baskets, which will be raffled off during the Annual Golf Outing. The funds raised will support the FOP’s Officer in Distress Fund, which provides assistance to sick or injured members and their families. Your support would be greatly appreciated.
