<div class="text_exposed_root text_exposed">SNOW HILL, MD. From Sheriff Mason of the Worcester County Sheriff&#8217;s Department:<br />
It is with a heavy heart that Sheriff Mason announces the line of duty death of <strong>K-9 Ike</strong>. K-9 Ike was tragically killed while on a traffic stop in Berlin this evening. K-9 Ike was a tremendous asset to the Sheriff&#8217;s Office and was responsibl<span class="text_exposed_show">e for numerous apprehensions and drug seizures. Our thoughts and prayers are with his handler and family. K-9 Ike was escorted with full honors to Holloway Funeral Home in Salisbury.<br />
The Sheriff&#8217;s Office would like to thank Holloway Funeral Home, Maryland State Police Berlin and Salisbury, Berlin Police Department, Wicomico County Sheriff&#8217;s Office, and the Salisbury Police Department.<br />
Pictured is K-9 Ike second from left. The loss of this partner can not be explained and the hole it leaves in our agency is large. Again our thoughts and prayers are with K-9 Ike&#8217;s family and partner.<div id="metaslider-id-3406" style="max-width: 400px;" class="ml-slider-3-109-0 metaslider metaslider-flex metaslider-3406 ml-slider has-dots-nav ms-theme-default" role="region" aria-label="Boats and vessels of all types" data-height="650" data-width="400">
