One of the by-products of the passing of Amendment Three to legalize recreational marijuana is being felt by the Kimberling City Police Department.
A feature story in this week’s Branson Tri-Lakes News highlights the retirement the department’s K-9 officers due to the fact that they have been trained to detect several substances including marijuana. Police Chief Todd Lemoine tells the Tri-Lakes News that the K-9 Officers, Ginger and Ryker, can’t be retrained to bypass the now legal substance. The city has applied for and been approved for a grant to replace the officers with new ones that will not be trained to detect marijuana.
The complete story can be found on the Branson Tri-Lakes News Website.
