One of the most infuriating incidents to read about on the news, is that of an accident inflicted by a drunk driver. We often feel a sense of rage coming over us when we imagine the thought of losing a loved one, or anybody, because of an irresponsible individual.
Recently, this was the case in Sesame Street, Seabeck. A drunk driver had hit another vehicle and decided to flee the scene (most likely in fear of being arrested for this illegal action!). The authorities felt this was a case for a four-legged expert, Heiko. Heiko is a police dog who is trained to track down individuals. This canine was ready for action, and the intense mission had taken off. It was not long before Heiko had sniffed out the perpetrator and, low and behold, he was hiding away in the woods.
We can be pretty certain that one would not hide away if one is innocent. This, of course, turned out to be the case. Once the authorities had run the perpetrator’s identity through their system, they came to discover the shocking reality that this man now has five DUI (driving under the influence) charges to his name over a period of ten years!
After Heiko’s brilliant job, the perpetrator is being investigated for a DUI, hit-and-run felony, and for driving with an expired license. Our canine companions truly are spectacular at just about anything, and it is because of them that we find ourselves breathing a sigh of relief!
