K-9 Thorr, 5, was a Belgian Malinois who served as a drug dog for HCPD. He was gravely injured when his patrol vehicle attempted to change lanes while doing traffic enforcement at the same time that a tractor-trailer changed lanes, striking the patrol car. Two officers suffered minor injuries and the truck driver was alert but airlifted to Grady Memorial Hospital.
