Washington, D.C. - Police officers Rick Warren and Diego Sanchez lost their lives late last night as a result of a bomb-sniffing dog’s deadly April Fools joke.
The officers were investigating a bomb scare called into the D.C. station around 11:30 PM and instructed Hank—the department’s bomb-sniffing dog for nearly 10 years— to sniff the perimeter in the hopes of finding something. When Hank returned to the officers without giving a warning signal, they believed it was safe to enter the building.
“I was standing across the street, ready to call back up when my men entered the building,” Officer Nightingale said during a news conference. “There was a funny look on that dog’s face and I knew something was up, but it was too late.”
Bomb-sniffing dogs are "passive response" workers, trained to immediately sit and wait for a reward if the smell an explosive. Hank reportedly returned from investigating the building and was more interested in playing fetch with the officers than anything else.
“You know, it’s funny when the dog pretends to go pee-pee on the carpet on April Fools Day, but this is going too far,” Police Chief Rectum in a news conference.
Authorities are contacting local pet mind reading agencies to research the cause of the incident, as well as tap continue to trace the bomb-threat phone call.
“We think that the dog was in cahoots with the phone-caller to play this deadly prank,” Police Chief Rectum told reporters. “As for Hankie, we’re going to have to put him to sleep to teach him a lesson.”
