(Gary, IN) - An Indiana State Police patrol dog was injured during the pursuit of a suspect Thursday morning.

Just after 8:30 a.m., state troopers pursued a stolen car on westbound I-80 in Lake County. During the chase, one trooper drove into a watery ditch to avoid hitting other vehicles. He was not injured.

The suspect led police onto I-65, then the Indiana Tollway, before entering local roads in Gary. He eventually bailed out and fled on foot. He was captured after a brief chase. However, somehow during the apprehension, a K-9 named Rogue suffered a gunshot wound to her paw. Authorities did not elaborate on the source of the gunshot.

Rogue’s handler drove her to a local animal hospital for emergency treatment, and she is expected to make a full recovery.

22-year-old Damontae Reed of Gary was charged with Auto Theft, Resisting Law Enforcement, and Reckless Driving.
