09/12/2024

(KAIR)--The Savannah, Missouri Police Lieutenant, charged in the death of the department's K-9, is out of a job.

KQ2-TV reports the city's Board of Alderman, this week, voted to terminate the employment of Lieutenant Daniel Zeigler.

Zeigler, the TV station reports, was charged last week with misdemeanor animal abuse, stemming from the June death of K-9 Horus.

Horus died of heat exposure, according to court documents, after he had been left in the police department vehicle after Zeigler and Horus had completed their overnight shift in the early morning hours of June 20.
