teams from Broken Bow Police Department, Lincoln County Sheriff’s Office and Atkinson Police Department assisted Broken
Bow Public Schools with a random narcotics sniff of school property on Oct. 11, 2012. The surprise search was conducted at the request of the school,
according to Broken Bow’s K9 Officer Dalen Wood. Two vehicles were investigated but no citations were issued. Wood said the PSD teams checked school
