Nothing in the story to suggest that the suspect shot the dog. “It is unclear how the dog was injured during the incident.” Sounds a lot like a cop pulled the trigger.
The dog was shot.
If you look at the still photo it appears the K9 dog suffered a fatal blow, shot, or stabbing to the neck or throat. LEOs would not have been in a position to shoot as you follow the dog, not be in front of him.
That’s the question, not if the suspect did it or not.
The handler should have been behind the dog, but unless you have a diagram for the position of the other officers, I’m going to remain open to the possibility of police cross fire until they can put together a credible story.
That pic is one of the saddest ever.

Mind if I use that line?
Are you familiar with this area of Long Beach?
The streets are narrow and not much spacing between the houses. No way police (especially SWAT) would pursue an armed suspect from different angles or in a crossfire.
Doesn’t make a difference anyway. Not only is the suspect dead but under CA laws, injuries or deaths caused during a pursuit or evasion is considered the fault of the suspect.
Amen.........don't know what's happening around here but the vibes ain't good.
So sad. I hate this.
” Sounds a lot like a cop pulled the trigger.”

Some people are just fuzzy on the concept of “designated shooter.”
I can’t get into that site unless I give my email address and password.
In that video, the person responsible for the death of the dog is the dead black thug.
