BIG BUST: K-9 And Officer Win Case Of The Year

An Urbandale Police Officer has been honored with the Case of the Year Award from the Heart of America Police Dog Association.

In October of 2011, Officer Shane Taylor and his K-9 partner Sabre were called to a Dallas County weigh station.

During a search of a truck and trailer Sabre located $180,000 hidden in a secret compartment.

That discovery led to a traffic stop two weeks later that turned up 250lbs. of marijuana.

Federal investigators got involved and were able to bring down a $1.1 million dollar nationwide drug operation.
