K-9 Hero Ace Survives Shooting | Annapolis News
Description
A heroic K-9 officer named Ace, a seven-year-old German Shepherd with the Polk County Sheriff’s Office, was shot during a high-stakes arrest and lost his leg—but not before saving three deputies’ lives. The suspect, Angel Bowers, opened fire as deputies tried to apprehend him, critically wounding Ace, who nearly bled to death before medics arrived. Bowers was fatally shot in return. Ace is now recovering in stable condition, with his handler by his side, thanks to heroic veterinary efforts. A dedicated trust has stepped in to cover his medical bills and will soon fund a replacement K-9 when Ace retires.
