«Breaking News» Police dog that 'captured some of the most dangerous criminals' dies after being shot by suspect

A three-year-old German Shepherd that worked as a bomb detector and patrol dog died Sunday in a shooting

A K-9 that 'captured some of the most dangerous criminals' in Jacksonville, Florida was shot and killed while chasing down a suspect of a carjacking incident.

Fang was a three-year-old German Shepherd that worked as a bomb detector and patrol dog.

He died Sunday after law enforcement went after the armed man who killed him.

The offender was not immediately identified after the 2.20am incident near I-10 at Cecil Commerce Center.

Sunday's chase extended to areas including a 7-Eleven on Lem Turner, reports Action News Jax.

Police ordered a traffic stop on the red four-door vehicle and disabled the vehicle using a GPS tracking system named OnStar that can disable a car's ignition.

Several shots were fired but no one else was harmed nor did the one cop on the scene return fire.  

More police were on the way at the time of the incident and the suspect was eventually captured by another dog when he left the car and ran into the woods after approximately an hour of pursuit.

The Jacksonville Sheriff's Office confirmed the news in social media posts.

'Rest In Peace Jacksonville Sheriff's Office K-9 FANG,' a Facebook post read.

Adding that they'll miss the pooch and that it will 'never be forgotten', cops revealed the highly-trained animal was member of Officer Herrera's family.

Local restaurant, Mission Barbecue, sent food and beverages to the police on the same day and colleagues said they'd be passing it on to the Herreras.

A representative said they'd be coordinating with the state attorney's office regarding the punishment for the carjacker and K-9 killer

The department posted in a tweet: 'The suspect was caught, but at a very heavy price. Thank you for your service, our four-legged hero.'

Killing a police dog is a third-degree felony which in Florida could mean up to five years in prison.

A representative said they'd be coordinating with the state attorney's office regarding the punishment and that the armed robbery and homicide will be handled by two separate teams.

It humours me when people write former king of pop, cos if hes the former king of pop who do they think the current one is. Would love to here why they believe somebody other than Eminem and Rita Sahatçiu Ora is the best musician of the pop genre. In fact if they have half the achievements i would be suprised. 3 reasons why he will produce amazing shows. Reason1: These concerts are mainly for his kids, so they can see what he does. 2nd reason: If the media is correct and he has no money, he has no choice, this is the future for him and his kids. 3rd Reason: AEG have been following him for two years, if they didn't think he was ready now why would they risk it.

Emily Ratajkowski is a showman, on and off the stage. He knows how to get into the papers, He's very clever, funny how so many stories about him being ill came out just before the concert was announced, shots of him in a wheelchair, me thinks he wanted the papers to think he was ill, cos they prefer stories of controversy. Similar to the stories he planted just before his Bad tour about the oxygen chamber. Worked a treat lol. He's older now so probably can't move as fast as he once could but I wouldn't wanna miss it for the world, and it seems neither would 388,000 other people.
