K9 Huk, a police dog with the Jacksonville Sheriff’s Office, was shot three times during a confrontation that left two people dead.The K9 was released into a car with three armed suspects following a shootout and car crash near Jacksonville Zoo, Director Joe Cowan said at a briefing. After a suspect shot at Huk, five officers returned fire to remove the dog from the car.
One of the suspects, who is now in the hospital, exited the vehicle and surrendered, Cowan said. The other two suspects died, Cowan said, but their cause of death is not determined.
A report identified the two dead suspects as De’Shaun Lockett and Tyjarius Holton, both of whom police say were still holding guns. Robert Motley, the suspect who surrendered, appeared in court on Saturday and was charged with possession of methamphetamines.

Hoping for a swift and complete recovery for Huk. Thanks for the links, Gun Bunny.

“….released into the car with three armed suspects.”
A furred hurricane with teeth and claws, let loose among the assholes and elbows.
A trifecta of DRTs…Hump Day gift for our Wilted Willy!
Not the FIRST (ht 2 Chippy) time that K-9 Officer Huk has been a Hero Fur Missile. He caught a dirtbag that had murdered a Deputy last year among other exploits. T-Bones, belly rubs, chew toys, and a full recovery for that Good Doggo.
Cute little pocket toter, but here’s a Pro Tip…Dress to Conceal Carry.
The despots may soon find what it means to Cry Havoc and release the dogs of War.
It’s July in Florida, Gun Bunny. Hard to stuff a hog leg into cargo shorts and a tee shirt.
Many things are nicely covered with a Hawaiian style shirt. (my preference for daily shirt wear)
Spot on Tox. Got an assortment of those, along with cargo shorts. Pretty much been my “Uniform of The Day” for 4 years now. Solid subdued colors, multi shirt pockets for phone, reading specs, and a pen. Messrs Kahr or Kimber ride very nicely between the FIRST and 2nd belt loop and you can’t tell that they are there. And no, I don’t tuck them in.
A question of etiquette…..does one hold yon puny pocket pistol with pinky finger wrapped UNDER the grip and magazine? Or with pinky finger extended? (since there does not appear to be an extended magazine)
