K9 Serge

Camden Police Department, New Jersey

End of Watch Thursday, August 9, 2012

K9 Serge died of heat exhaustion after the patrol car’s air conditioner and temperature alarm system failed while parked outside of police headquarters at approximately 12:30 pm. The failure of the temperature alarm prevented the windows from automatically rolling down as the temperature in the patrol car increased.

Serge had served with the Camden Police Department for only three months.
