We will never forget that cold winter day, January 18, 1979. Deputy Sheriff David G. Livengood and his K-9 partner Sarge responded to a silent alarm at an army/navy discount store in Oakland.
Deputy Livengood was shot and killed by two perpetrators who fled and were later apprehended. His K-9 partner Sarge suffered wounds from a sword and died. Deputy Livengood and his K-9 Sarge both paid the ultimate sacrifice protecting the citizens of Garrett County. We are forever grateful for your service.
