[CHP Placerville]

About 6:30 pm Sunay, Placerville CHP was sent to a call of a dog on the freeway, westbound US-50 at Greenstone.

A witness reported that a vehicle had slowed down, kicked the dog out of the vehicle and then sped off.

Fortunately, Officer Merkel got there quickly and rescued this good boy before he was harmed. As you can see, they became fast friends.

Not sure what would bring someone to abandoning an innocent dog on a freeway. We will reserve further comment on that.

"Bicycle Bob" has decided to officially retire and hit the road in his RV with his wife, dog, and maybe a bike or two. We appreciate all of the support over the years and we hope to see you out and about on the trails.

"Happy Trails," He says.

Everyone is asking what is causing these Mass Shootings. Where there warning signs? If there were, then why didn’t anyone notice? I’m here to tell you there were MANY warning signs that these young people were displaying, before these horrific incidents occurred. No one paid attention or knew how to see them.
