Sieger
K9 Sieger died after ingesting the rodent poison sodium fluoroacetate while searching a liquor store at 45 East Garfield Boulevard.

The bread had been laced with the rodent poison, causing Sieger to become ill. He was immediately taken to a local animal hospital where he died.
K9 had served with the Chicago Police Department for 7-1/2 years and was only six months short of being retired.
