Joint Statement Release: Galeno Family and City of Lodi Enzo Settlement

May 28, 2024

“As many of you know, Enzo, a two-year old Husky owned by the Galeno family, was running lose in the City of Lodi. Lodi Police Department and Animal Control Services received reports of this incident and responded to the scene. After officers were unable to catch Enzo, one of the officers utilized a taser. Unfortunately, as a result of being tased, Enzo lost his life. In response to Enzo’s death, the Lodi Police Department proactively ordered additional equipment, completed Department-wide animal response training with the Humane Society of the United States, and has adopted new policies with the hope that something like this would not happen again. The Galeno family and the City of Lodi have recently been able to resolve this matter.”
