(Really Adorable) NYPD K-9 Dog Tracks Down Gunman

Check out this cute K-9 dog who helped cops find a man who was brandishing a gun on a city bus! According to the Daily News, Blaze, a 7-year-old "gun-loving" German shepherd, took a gun that was left under a car at 225th and White Plains Road in the Bronx. While carrying the gun in his mouth, the pup matched "the scent on the weapon to the scent on the pavement" and "tracked the suspect more than a block and a half. With his handler, Officer Benny Colecchia, at his side, Blaze zeroed in on a backyard on E. 227th St., where identical twins were playing dominos." The fun with dominos ended, because Rahsheim Francis, 17, was charged with weapon possession. And the gun turned out to be a BB gun.
