Missing Coast Guard Mascot Found In Pyro Box - Yahoo! News

Missing Coast Guard Mascot Found In Pyro Box - Yahoo! News

Almost two days after she was reported missing, the year-old black Labrador mascot of the Port Canaveral Coast Guard Station was found around 6:45 a.m. Tuesday in a locked steel container full of flares and other pyrotechnics, Local 6 News partner Florida Today reported. She had been missing since around 2 p.m. Sunday.

Liberty was with the last man to check the pyrotechnics box. She must have crawled up into the 4-by-4-foot steel container while it was raining and he closed her up in it without noticing, Rice said.
