Summary
A beloved K-9 hero, Santi, a five-year-old Belgian Malinois who served Fresno County for four years, died tragically after being struck by a hit-and-run driver. Startled by illegal fireworks, Santi bolted into traffic, and despite his handler’s efforts, he couldn’t be saved. The deputy found him critically injured and rushed him to the vet — but it was too late. Authorities are now investigating the fleeing vehicle while using this heartbreaking loss to warn about the deadly risks of illegal fireworks, especially to our four-legged partners in law enforcement. The department is heartbroken.
