A wounded police dog was found dehydrated but alive Friday morning after she ran from the scene of a shootout that left a deputy sheriff dead, police said.
Kina, a German Shepherd, was shot twice in the neck and back while she waited in her handler’s vehicle during the gunfight Wednesday.
The dog was found still wearing her bulletproof vest and was dehydrated but expected to make a full recovery.
Sebastian County Deputy Bill Cooper died and Hackett Police Chief Darrell Spells was injured in the shooting. The suspect, identified as Billy Monroe Jones remains in police custody.
