In recent months from coast to coast, the Nation has experienced an uptick in bomb threats. Schools, retailers, houses of worship, government offices and businesses have all been targets. In just three days, three different Iowa schools received bomb threats requiring evacuation. Last month, a Florida man was arrested after claiming to plant a bomb at a local big box retailer and dozens of Colorado schools and synagogues were evacuated after receiving bomb threats.

Countless people shopped at the Nation’s malls this holiday season in search of just the right gifts for family and friends. Enhanced Protection Services Canine Handler Joe Rios and three-year-old German Shepherd Zeus also spent many days at a prominent retail shopping center in a New York City borough – carrying out searches of a different kind.
