A Mississippi K9 is being hailed a hero after saving the life of his partner, Hancock Sheriff\u2019s Deputy Todd Frazier, during a violent ambush.<\/p>\n
Deputy Attacked by Three Suspects<\/p>\n
Deputy Frazier faced a life-threatening attack when three suspects beat him and slashed him with a box cutter. Authorities launched a manhunt immediately. Chief Deputy Don Bass told the Clarion-Ledger:<\/p>\n
They told him they were going to slit his throat and dragged him toward the woods.\u201d<\/p>\n

K9 Lucas Intervenes<\/p>\n
Fortunately, Lucas, a black Belgian Malinois, sprang into action. Frazier activated a button on his vehicle, opening the door and releasing Lucas. Sheriff Ricky Adam confirmed that Lucas bit at least one, possibly two, of the attackers.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe don\u2019t know how many he got, we just know he had blood all over him,\u201d Adam told the Clarion-Ledger.
\nHow the Attack Unfolded<\/p>\n
The assault began when Frazier stepped out of his vehicle to inspect a parked blue Lincoln Town Car with a dark vinyl top at a rest stop. The car\u2019s lights were off, and the driver appeared to be alone.<\/p>\n
\u201cWhen he got out, two other people came out of the woods right by the vehicle. He backed up, fell, and it was on then,\u201d Sheriff Adam said.
\nK9 Hero Recognized<\/p>\n
Lucas\u2019s quick response likely saved Deputy Frazier\u2019s life. Authorities continue searching for the suspects, while the brave K9 receives praise for his courage and training.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
