It is with a heavy heart the Nacogdoches Police Department is announcing the passing of K9 Hunter earlier today. Hunter was recently diagnosed with a crippling autoimmune disease which caused his health to rapidly decline. The difficult decision was made after considering quality of life and consultation with the veterinarian along with Officer Eggebrecht.
Hunter joined the NPD family in June 2018 and has faithfully served the city of Nacogdoches with his partner Officer Eggebrecht. NPD would like to thank the Eggebrecht family for the love and support they’ve given Hunter through the years. We would also like to thank Hunter for his service to our department.
