Limestone prison official: Bloodhound was swept up by tornado, survived with only broken jaw

CAPSHAW, Alabama ? A Limestone Correctional Facility official says he believes one of his bloodhound tracking dogs was swept away by the March 2 tornado that damaged the prison.

Capt. Paul Brown told The Tuscaloosa News the young bloodhound named Old Bubba was found safe about a day after the March 2 storm.

Brown says the dog has a broken jaw, but otherwise was unhurt.

Brown says the storm took the roof off the pen where Bubba was being kept and "took Bubba with it."

He said a utility crew from Athens Utilities found Old Bubba the next day about a half-mile from the prison. Brown figures because Old Bubba would have had to go over or through fences after his shelter was damaged, the tornado must have picked him up.
