DUNCAN, S.C. (FOX Carolina) - The Upstate law enforcement community is mourning the loss of a beloved K-9 officer.
K-9 Kaos with the Duncan Police Department passed away unexpectedly on Wednesday.
Kaos’ final ride started in Columbia at 11 a.m. on Tuesday morning and ended at the Living Waters Funeral Home in Lyman at around 1 p.m.
He served for three years with the Duncan Police Department and helped to get illegal drugs, including cocaine and fentanyl, off the streets.
Kaos was a part of many community events and educational visits at schools in the area.
The department said the loss was a tremendous upset for local law enforcement and asked for prayers for K-9 handler Officer Andy Wright.
