The k9 is a law enforcement officer

True. But if you check the official story is that the suspect was trying to drown both a police dog and a police officer.

Tampa, FL - UPDATE: The suspect who was shot early this morning after fighting with a Tampa Police officer and attempting to drown a Police K-9 and an officer has died of his injuries.

That's pretty ambitious to try to drown a dog and a police officer while also trying to escape from them.
