PITTSBURGH — A Pittsburgh K-9 officer will be more protected on the job.
The Pittsburgh Bureau of Police said Bane will get a vest that will protect him from bullets and stabbings.
The organization called Vested Interest in K-9's is donating it.
Another Pittsburgh K-9, Rocco, was killed four years ago when he was stabbed by a suspect in Lawrenceville.
