COLUMBUS, Ind. – The Bartholomew County Sheriff’s Office is adding the presence of police dogs (K-9s) at the Bartholomew County Courthouse to help detect, and keep, illegal items from being transported inside.
“Whether it’s illicit drugs, drug-related paraphernalia, tobacco products or other prohibited items, contraband among prisoners remains a constant test for our correctional officers,” said Sheriff Matt Myers. He also added that the department’s K-9 deputies will be at the courthouse throughout the day and night.
