K9 Indy, pride of Fort Myers police, dies

Fort Myers Police K9 Indy, a nearly 10-year veteran of the police department, has died. According to the FMPD, Indy began suffering severe gastrointestinal complications two weeks before his death on Sunday. Indy began his service with the police department in March 2005, under the care of his partner, Sergeant Enrico Doro. Due to a change in Doro's assignment, Indy was reassigned to Officer Jeremy Hawkins in December 2008. Hawkins and Indy spent the last six years together. Throughout their career, Hawkins and Indy spent every day together while on and off duty. Hawkins and Indy tracked fleeing felons, searched buildings, found narcotics, and volunteered in hundreds of demonstrations for children and special events. Indy's notable statistics, FMPD said, include:

•1,400 hours of training
•1,550 deployments
•120 building searches
•116 tracks
•1,280 narcotics searches
•27 felons apprehended

"K9 Indy was a beloved member of our law enforcement family. The faithful service and protection he provided will
 always be remembered," Chief Douglas Baker said in a statement.
