Ohio Police Dog Named in Lawsuit

Andi, a dog used by the Athens County Sheriff’s Department, poses in this undated photo taken in Athens. The dog is a defendant in a lawsuit filed by a convicted drug dealer. Andi “signed” the paper with a paw print, indicating he’d been formally served with the complaint.

County Prosecutor C. David Warren said to his knowledge, it’s the first time the county’s dog has ever been singled out as a defendant.
