text: please help answer for police academy? you and your trusty k9 have apprehended a major drug dealer and a large amount of drugs.  you have to get them across the river, but the boat you found only holds the k9, the drugs, or the dealer one at a time and the k9 cannot swim across the river. if you leave the k9 with dealer, he will bite him.  if you leave the dealer with the drugs he might destroy the drugs.  how do you get all 3 from one side to the other? note: the river is too deep and too swift for anyone to swim. all must be transported in the boat. very good question  i would tie the criminal up and secure him and  than take my partner (the loyal k9 officer) across to safety to wait on other side than go get my prisoner and the drugs or call for backup
