K9 Zak, served the community of Santa Paula and SPPD for 5 years from 2010 to 2015. They both did it bravely and with honor. Zak handled numerous dangerous situations without hesitation to protect those around him. Zak was retired in 2015 and lived with his partner, Officer Larry Johnson and his family. He was a hero and will be missed.

Thank you both for your sacrifice and service. ZAK was laid to rest due to complicated medical issues. ZAK finished out his years since 2015 with his partner and family by his side.

SHOOTER ARRESTED On Wednesday, September 4, 2019, Santa Paula Police officers responded to a report of a shots fired incident in the 400 block of E. Harvard Blv...d. While in route to the incident, responding officers observed a vehicle leaving the area of the shooting at a high rate of speed. As officers attempted to stop the vehicle to investigate, the vehicle failed to yield which initiated a vehicle pursuit that ended in the City of Ventura. The driver of the suspect vehicle fled on foot and was not apprehended by officers that day. Through an extensive investigation, the suspect was identified as a 16-year old male juvenile. Police detectives obtained multiple search warrants and the suspect was eventually apprehended at approximately 11:00 AM, Sunday September 15, 2019 in a hotel in the City of Camarillo. The suspect was charged with Attempted Homicide. If anyone has any information regarding the shooting incident, please contact Detective Raad at 805-525-4474, [email protected].

I really need to be more specific when I ask Officer Gates for a picture of training.

This is a short video of Django working with our K9 trainer Dan Inglis on his scent work. Several iceboxes were placed around the location. Django searched the yard and immediately found the one containing the contraband.

Get job on the E Collar Course. Both Ace and Django complete E Collar training. Another tool in the tool box to make our K9s even better.
