County Sheriff’s Office recognized for heroic effort

Gloucester County Commissioner Nicholas DeSilvio attended Sheriff Sammons’ State of the Office meeting where he was proud to recognize and honor Gloucester County Sheriff K9 Shiloh and her handlers GCSO Officer Alexander Molnar and GCSO Officer Thomas Accoglio with a Proclamation for their successful rescue of three missing boys who were lost in a wooded area in Magnolia last month. 

The Gloucester County Sheriff’s Office had received a bloodhound request from the Magnolia Police Department to assist in locating the three boys when they didn’t return home from a bike ride.  K9 Officer Shiloh, who is scent trained, was given articles of clothing and bedding to become familiar with their scent in order to track the boy’s location.  Shiloh led officers to their location, a creek located deep in the woods, and brought the family together again.
