The autopsy report on an Oklahoma City robbery suspect who stabbed a police dog does not match the law enforcement department’s initial report on the officer-involved shooting.
The death of Kye left Sgt. Ryan Stark distraught over the loss of his German Shepherd K-9 partner. During a funeral service with police honors, the sergeant gave the 3-year-old dog one last pat on the head.
The pair had spent two years together with the Oklahoma City Police Department as partners tracking and taking into custody an array of criminals.
The agency is currently reviewing a medical examiner report that suggest Mark Salazar was gunned down while running away during the Aug. 24 incident.
It’s not clear if homicide charges will be filed against Stark, who reportedly opened fire after failing to pull the dog and 22-year-old suspect apart as he fled the scene of a robbery, according to the Oklahoman.
