Gangs often target police officers. Deputy Todd Frazier works for the Long Beach, Mississippi Police department. While on patrol one day, he came across a man who appeared to be unconscious behind the wheel. While at the car, the deputy became distracted by two other men who approached him.
It was a trap a local gang set for him. The three gangsters dragged the lone deputy into the woods, all the while threatening to kill him.
“They told him they were going to slit his throat, and they were dragging him toward the woods,” Chief Deputy Don Bass said.
Frazier had a device on his belt that allowed him to open the compartment where his canine companion, Lucas sat at attention.
The dog burst from the car and into the woods to save his master’s life. “He knew. I could hear him coming. I couldn’t see anything because the blood was all in my eyes, but I could hear him coming, growling and making these sounds… he sounded like a wolf,” Frazier said. “I thought, ‘Now he’s gonna get you.’”
Lucas attacked the men. they ran off. “We don’t know how many he got; we just know he had blood all over him,” Sheriff Ricky Adam said of the heroic dog’s actions.
