Police Dog Gets Laid Off

The economy in Aberdeen, Washington is so bad, they've had to layoff their police dog.
But the community outcry may end up saving his job.
"Nitro" can fight crime, but he can't fight the ailing economy.
His job was eliminated earlier this month when the police department needed to cut its budget.
Six-year-old Nitro has helped nab between 35 and 40 suspects since he joined the force in 2005.
