K-9 bite: Officers recognized a subject with an outstanding warrant driving into a grocery store parking lot on June 19. Officers observed the subject exit the car and walk into the store. After requesting backup and a K-9 unit, officers entered the store but couldn’t find the subject. When officers exited the store, they recognized a car belonging to an acquaintance of the subject leaving the area. Officers stopped the car, and the driver told officers they got a call from the subject saying he was in the woods behind the store. Officers, with the K-9 unit, searched the wooded area and found the subject sitting in the forest. Although the subject complied with orders to lay down, he would not move his hands from under him. Officers then ordered the K-9 to make contact with the subject in the leg, which made the subject free their hands. East Pierce Fire and Rescue treated the bite and the subject was booked at the Enumclaw jail.

Missing dog: On June 19, officers were dispatched to a residence after a burglary. The reporting party told officers they didn’t think anything was taken because their dog, a pit bull, most likely scared the burglar away after he came in through a window. Unfortunately, the dog left the same way the burglar did.
