ABERDEEN — Donations will allow the Aberdeen Police Department to reinstate a K-9 program cut from the budget.

Chief Bob Torgerson told KXRO that $57,000 will not only put Nitro back to work with Officer Steve Timmons, but also will pay for a car, kennel and equipment.

The German shepherd’s first day back will be on Wednesday.
