"As both a Philadelphia Eagles fan and an Atlantic City fan, this is extra special," said Mayor Small. "The greatest police department in the world now has a new K-9, and we owe that to Fletcher Cox. Through his donation, Fletcher is showing us he doesn't just make an impact on the field, but off it as well. Narco has already proven to be a worthwhile addition to the Atlantic City Police Department, and we can't thank Fletcher enough for his generosity."
