Velbert is a city in Germany. - Large-scale effort: Police save escaped canine on A44 roadway
Around 5:30 p.m., a motorist informed the police about a stray dog running loose on Werdener Straße near Kettwiger Straße. Police couldn't find the dog immediately.
Soon after, the authorities received multiple calls about a dog running across the highway, A44, in the Birther Tunnel. As a safety measure, the officials shut down the highway.
Feeling worried, a 55-year-old man from Velbert contacted the law enforcement agencies because his Labrador was missing. To their surprise, the dog that caused commotion on the highway was the man's. Police spotted the dog in the "Hetterscheidt" intersection. However, it dashed toward the oncoming lane, then disappeared into the bushes, losing the officers' sight.
A helicopter with a police pilot took off to work together with the ground-based search team. From the air, the police finally located the dog safe and sound, perched on a slope next to the freeway. The dog was safely returned to its owner.
Eventually, at 7:45 p.m., the highway was reopened.
