Meet K-9 Barney
As part of our Niner Nation Works series, we would like to introduce you to Charlotte's explosive detection K-9, Barney, and his handler Sgt. Santerrio Johnson. Their tremendous work is vital to the safety of everyone on campus, and we are proud to call them members of Niner Nation.
Every Friday we will introduce a Niner. Have a suggestion on who we should highlight next? Email us at ninerinsider.uncc.edu.
