Description
A deputy with the Pinellas County Sheriff's Office is still recovering in the hospital after getting shot three times Sunday evening in Pinellas Park, St. Petersburg Police Chief Anthony Holloway explained.
A sergeant and the deputy, who is also a corporal K-9 handler, chased a man, identified as 23-year-old Zion Bostick, who was accused by a witness of trying to break into several cars.
Bostick reportedly ran behind a local church and continued through a wooded area to a neighborhood. This was when K-9 Corporal Matthew Aitken and K-9 Taco began to track the man.
"When deputies made contact with the suspect, he then took off running southbound from that area," Holloway said during a previous news conference. "The K-9 handler along with the sergeant on the scene followed the suspect."
