A currency-sniffing K9 has joined the search for the East Coast Radio Fugitive

Loading player...
After days of clues, theories and listeners trying to outsmart KZN's most elusive man, Stacey and J Sbu have decided it may be time to bring in some professional help.

Enter Iris.

She's not interested in solving riddles. She's not following clue trails. And she definitely isn't scrolling through listener theories. Iris is a highly trained currency detection dog and she's got one job: find the money.

Joined by her handler Gregg from Excellerate's K9 division, Iris officially enters the hunt for the East Coast Radio Fugitive ahead of East Coast Radio's 30th birthday.

While the rest of KZN is busy trying to work out where the Fugitive will be, Iris is focused on something much simpler: the growing cash bounty he's carrying around.

Could a four-legged investigator succeed where thousands of listeners have failed?
