Overview

• Roam was discharged Saturday morning and rode home in a Colorado Springs police procession as residents lined Fountain Boulevard.
• The K-9 was stabbed on Oct. 15 while entering a residence during a domestic-dispute response involving 37-year-old Anthony Bryant, who barricaded himself before being taken into custody about 15 minutes later.
• He underwent hours of surgery and multiple blood transfusions, suffered wounds to his head, neck and abdomen, and had his left hind limb amputated.
• A surgeon said he is expected to make a full recovery barring setbacks.
• Roam is the department’s first certified gun-detection dog, was considered too young for a stab-proof vest, and authorities said charging decisions would follow based in part on his condition.
