Chief Braughler and the entire Barker Police Department proudly endorse and support the nomination of Mike Filecetti as the next Niagara County Sheriff. Filicetti continues to lead the charge in contributing to building respect and trust of the public we serve by his actions and not just words. He took the lead in organizing a county wide multi-agency warrant sweep this summer where he also hit the streets with us executing the warrants taking wanted subjects into custody. He also continues to support local jurisdictions by getting involved in community events as demonstrated in above picture where he participated in the Village of Barker Annual 5k run.

K9 "Warrant": The Barker Barker

K9 "Warrant" is Barker's first canine. Warrant was bred from a long line of Police Canines, including his mother "Persia", who is a certified Narcotic Detection K9 at Phillips Command Dogs. Warrant is a Czech Shepherd and is 6 years old.

K9 "Warrant" began his training when he was only a few months old. "Warrant" has been certified in Narcotics detection through the American Working Dog Association since about the age of one year old. Warrant continues to train and certify with O'Mally's K9 Services.

Please note: K9 "Warrant" is a working dog. When you see him, please do not attempt to pet him.
