A sad reminder of all that dogs do in service, this news via @dogmeister: FBI K9 Killed from the Detroit Free Press

Everyone wanted to know about the dog carried from a mysterious chopper in Madison Heights on Wednesday afternoon.

The large volume of phone calls finally caused Madison Heights Police Chief Kevin Sagan to issue a news release, explaining the dog belonged to the FBI and was fatally wounded during a shootout in Wednesday’s raid in Dearborn.

The FBI landed a helicopter with the wounded dog at 12:25 p.m. on normally busy John R, just south of 12 Mile Road, “right in front of the hospital,” police said, referring to Veterinary Emergency Services at 28223 John R.

FBI agents carried the wounded dog into hospital, but it did not survive.

There were no injuries and no traffic mishaps as a result of the unusual landing.

The FBI did everything they could for the dog, their partner.  Here’s the video on the entire report:
