An Ohio police department has fired an officer who released his police dog on Rose -- even after state troopers told him to hold the dog back. A statement issued Wednesday, July 26, 2023, by Circleville police said Ryan Speakman “did not meet the standards and expectations we hold for our police officers” and that he has been “terminated from the department, effective immediately.” Photo credit: Ohio State Highway Patrol via The Associated Press
