A fantastic example of collaborative working between @WMerciaPolice @K999Cops and @HWFireWorcs today when @HWFireUSARK9 and the drone were requested to find a time critical vulnerable person. Radar was quick to find the casualty. @HWFireSCusack @HWFRS

The K9 team was called out at 0300hrs this morning to assist the police with a missing 14 year old girl since 2000 hrs.Radar worked hard and located the girl safe and well although wet and cold, times like that make the hard work and training all worth while 😁🐕

Such a valued member of @HWFire USAR @HWFireWorcs and @HWFireDroitwich for the last 25 years, we wish Robin a long and very happy retirement! We’re fairly certain he received enough traditional ‘buckets’ in his last day celebration! Well done Rob!
