Four K-9 officers at the University of Maryland have just graduated from the department’s first explosive detection canine program, university police said.
The officers and their canine partners completed a four-month training course designed to help the dogs sniff out explosives on the College Park campus. University police said the team will also be used at large school functions that typically draw crowds, such as athletic events or visits from dignitaries, to provide additional security.
