Niles Police Officer Marijo Zawilla brought her partner, Odin, a Belgian Malinois, to participate in a canine demonstration in the gymnasium at Northridge Prep in Nìles on Feb. 21. The demonstration was for students in a new CS! class at Northridge. During the demonstration, Odin quickly searched the wails, chairs and other items for 1 gram of marijuana that Zawilla hid earlier. The K-9 found the ifiegal substance in less than a minute. StudentsatNorthridge Prep watched in amazement as the dog quickly sniffed out the drugs. Later in the demonstration, a man dressed in a puffy protective suit came in and was pretending to be an offender.
