Texas K9 is awarded Purple Heart after surviving officer-involved shooting: ‘Bravery and purpose’

WEATHERFORD, TX – A Texas K9 was awarded a Purple Heart after he heroically responded to an officer-involved shooting in November.

Jack, a K9 who works with the Weatherford Police Department, was attempting to help serve a warrant when the event turned into a police shootout with a suspect. Jack was shot in his paw and ear during the exchange of fire.

The department announced last week that Jack is now healed and would be honored for his efforts.
