San Diego PD posts tribute to K-9 killed in line of duty

The San Diego Police Department posted a moving tribute on social media Wednesday honoring Sir, a service K-9 killed in the line of duty.

Sir was helping SDPD officers detain a shooting suspect at around 1:30 a.m. Wednesday morning on the campus of Mesa College when the suspect shot him. The 4-year-old Belgian malinois was taken to a veterinary hospital but didn't survive his injuries.

"Dear K9 Sir, We salute you for your relentless commitment to duty. We salute you for your unwavering loyalty, standing by the side of your handler in every situation. We salute you for keeping our officers and the citizens of San Diego safe," SDPD said in a tweet that included a video of officers saluting Sir. A follow-up tweet read,"We salute you for your ultimate sacrifice, a true hero who served with honor until the very end. Rest Easy, K9 Sir, ID C-1298.
