A retired Sussex Police dog named Bear helped rescue a vulnerable missing man during his first walk after major surgery.

The 12-year-old German shepherd, adopted by former officer Julia Pope, was out for a birthday walk near Eastbourne when he “went into work mode.” Bear sensed something, led his owner to an area of dense undergrowth, and found the man, who was cold, wet, and unable to get up.

“It was extremely cold and almost dark. I’m not sure he would have survived the night,” Pope said. Together, they helped guide the man to safety, where he was reunited with his family.

Since retiring in 2020, Bear has supported police staff as a wellbeing and trauma support dog. Last year, he underwent life-saving spinal surgery, supported by the Thin Blue Paw Foundation.

Even in retirement, Bear is proving he’ll always be a protector.

It was just report that in the month of November alone, the U.S. government spent $87 billion on interest on the debt. 

It’s increasingly obvious that the Congress intends to keep borrowing money until the dollar collapses.  Will Trump be able to stop the spending addicts?

Yesterday, the SFPD highlighted our work reducing violence in San Francisco that has led to a 60-year-low in homicides. This was a team effort from investigations, patrol, as well as community and city partners.

Any homicide in one too many. With 33 this year, we're at levels not seen since 1960.

We will work diligently to bring justice to these victims. Our homicide unit currently has an 88% clearance rate, which is well above the national average of 50-60%

Last year saw a 35% decline in homicides thanks to the dedicated work of our officers and our city partners.

The primary driver of homicides in SF is shootings. By using our resources to reduce shootings, we’ve had a major impact on homicides.

Our Violence Reduction Initiative, which we launched in D10 focuses on individuals who have the greatest risk of perpetuating or being victimized by violence. Experts say it led to a -50% reduction in homicides and shootings compared to the rest of SF

NEW: Minneapolis city council member Robin Wonsley calls the “criminalization” of pro-Hamas extremists who occupied the University of Minnesota’s Morrill Hall in October “incredibly troubling.”

According to the university, they caused an estimated $67,000 in damage.

“Some employees initially hid under desks or in bathrooms, while many unsuccessfully looked for alternative exit routes, because most exits were blocked. Several were afraid to leave their locked spaces for an extended period of time,” the school’s president said.

Wonsley’s resolution “expressing solidarity” with the protesters and urging charges to be dropped was vetoed this week by Mayor Jacob Frey.

LAPD arrested two suspects in the cold-blooded killing of Dr. Hamid Mirshojae, a respected Woodland Hills physician.

Evan Hardman and Rose Sweeting are accused of carrying out this killing, yet police have not revealed their motive. Dr. Mirshojae was reportedly targeted in a brutal baseball bat attack just months before his murder—raising urgent questions about his safety and the threats he faced.

Anyone with information about this ongoing investigation is urged to contact LAPD’s Valley Homicide at 818-374-9550.
