North Texas police K-9 helped save partner as both were shot
Dallas Police Chief Eddie Garcia called a wounded K-9 partner a “hero“ for its actions during the pursuit of a suspect last week, saying the dog helped save his partner’s life as both were shot.
The shooting happened early Friday as Sr. Cpl. Scott Jay and his K-9 partner, Figor, were trying to find a shooting suspect in the area of 2900 Cypress Avenue, in southeast Dallas.
As the two closed in on the suspect Brian Casillas, 20, Casillas shot Figor through his chest and then shot at Jay, wounding him in the chest and leg, Garcia said.
Figor then kept pursuing Casillas and helped take the man into custody.
“The work of this dog this night was nothing short of heroic,“ Garcia said at a news conference Monday. “Shot, injured, Figor goes back to do his job and take the man into custody.“
Casillas died at the scene after Jay shot back at him. Jay and Figor were taken for treatment and survived the shooting.
“God wasn’t ready for two warriors that night,“ Garcia said, “and these warriors did their duty in the face of evil.“
