SNELLVILLE — After more than a decade on the force, Chris is hanging up his badge.

The Snellville mayor and city council on Monday night honored the retiring K-9 following a storied career of service, including more than 900 drug searches and 175 arrests.

According to a proclamation approved by the officials, a highlight in the Belgian Malinois’ time working with partner Sgt. David Matson was helping police find more than 900 pounds of marijuana and $115,000 in cash hidden beneath a false floor in an RV. That was after human officers almost missed the contraband.
