Ciko works alongside his handler, Chief Joe Urso, of the Mantua Police Department. He is a Belgian Malinois trained in narcotic detection (marijuana, heroin, cocaine, meth, and any derivatives). In his time off, Ciko enjoys playing "tug tug" and fetch with his favorite ball.

Mika's story is very special and hits close to home. Mika is a puppy of K9 Bagio whose handler was Joshua Miktarian, a fallen officer from Twinsburg who lost his life in the line of duty in 2008. Mika was donated to the city of Streetsboro and works alongside handler Det. Luke Nelson.
