Jacksonville, Fl \u2014 The Jacksonville Sheriff\u2019s Office is spotlighting two recent events involving dramatic rescues. <\/p>\n
On its Facebook timeline Monday, JSO credited K9 Patriot after he made his 20th find. <\/p>\n
A 9-year-old had wandered off from his home Monday morning. K9 Patriot and his handler, Officer Anthony Yannuzzi, spent three hours tracking the child, finding him in a bush. The child was turned over to his family. <\/p>\n
JSO says Patriot normally gets fresh venison deer meat as a reward for finding a missing person. But Officer Yannuzzi says Patriot\u2019s favorite treat, a salmon sushi plate, was on the menu in celebration of the accomplishment. <\/p>\n
\u25b6 Listen to Jacksonville\u2019s Morning News Interviews<\/a><\/p>\n In a separate post, JSO showed body camera video of an officer who recently saved a man\u2019s life near Memorial Park in Riverside. <\/p>\n Officer Robert Green, who used to be a lifeguard, swam to the man and brought him back to the bulkhead early Sunday morning. <\/p>\n The man is expected to make a full recovery.<\/p>\n JSO says it doesn\u2019t know exactly how he ended up in the river but he was intoxicated and appears to have been leaving a night out at local bars. <\/p>\n Click here<\/a> to download our free news, weather and traffic app. And click here<\/a> to subscribe to our daily 3 Big Things newsletter.<\/p>\n \u00a92025 Cox Media Group<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Jacksonville, Fl \u2014 The Jacksonville Sheriff\u2019s Office is spotlighting two recent events involving dramatic rescues.
