Cops Kill Dog To Save Ecstasy Dealing Suspect in West Miami

A narcotics bust in West Miami took a wild turn last night, with a high speed chase leading to a foot race leading to undercover cops slaying a neighborhood dog to save a suspect in an ecstasy ring.

​It all started around 7 p.m., says Officer Kenia Reyes, a spokeswoman for City of Miami police.

A team of undercover police converged on a car near SW 57th Ave. and West Flagler in a sting operation against a suspected ecstasy dealer, whom police have yet to name.

The suspect stepped on the gas, tearing south down 57th Ave. The cops gave chase.

Near SW 14th St., the accused ecstacy slinger jumped out of his car and hopped a metal fence behind a red-tiled roof ranch house.

The cops heard screaming, and when they jumped the fence they found a dog chomping on the suspect's leg.

The undercover officer tried to pull the dog off, but it turned on him, too, Reyes says.

So the cop shot the dog, and then arrested the suspect.

The alleged drug dealer has been charged with possession of ecstacy, sale of ecstacy, resisting arrest without violence and burglary.

Riptide has asked for more info on the suspect. When we get it, we'll update the post.

The War On Drugs! Don't do drugs? DOESN'T MATTER! You TOO Can have Your Life And Rights STOMPED UPON!!

yaaayyy........
 
Man that's so fucked up that they just killed somebody's dog.

Fuck that! What do you expect the dog to do? Its the dog's job to protect the property from intruders!
 
^I agree, though I think that once the guy jumped into the yard, there was only so much that could have been done. It's unfortunate. The guy shouldn't have jumped into a chain-linked fence with a guard dog, and someone should have to reimburse the owner the best they can.
 
The title is misleading I feel. The cop didn't shoot the dog to protect the suspect, he shot it to protect himself.

It's fucked thou...some person's best friend got killed cuz of the stupid war on drugs. SAD. Dogs are good creatures.
 
This insane phony "war on drugs" is the real threat to peace and security in our communities. Police need to go after real crimes that have victims, and not create victims by persecuting practicers of harmless activity.

heh so true, if they hopped the fence and shot the dog that would be one thing, but nooo it bit a roidraging cop and THEN they decided to take its life.. where the FUCK was their pepper spray huh?? Acting out of anger perhaps?

(hmm well being fair it says he was undercover, probably didn't have spray. Still, misleading title all the same)

Weird. Flagler and Red is hardly a drug spot.

Sorry, but I think this guy should go down simply because he fled in a vehicle. There's a lot of foot traffic thereabouts, and we're lucky nobody was run over and killed (as happened in Broward a couple of days ago to a teenage girl during a chase).

This is pretty close to what actually happen, It was my COUSINS Dog that they fuckin shot and killed. The suspect hopped the fence and ran across the yard the cops were about 20-30 yards behind him, The suspect spooked the dog and when the cops came running after him the dog was showing his teeth and growling, The Dog was NOT a harm to any of them but the cop who shot and killed the dog were afraid the suspect was going to get away so instead of running around the house (giving the suspect more of a head start) they shot the dog and just trampled through the yard. These motherfuckers think they can do whatever the fuck they want.

The only "marks" on the suspect are from the cops throwing him on the ground.

Please urge your cousin to file a lawsuit against the police department. It might do a great deal to protect people's property in the future.

Has your family written to the paper that published that article? They should press charges and ask for a retraction or something.
