Minneapolis K9 Dies During Suspected Burglary Call Police say officers were called to the 200-block of Hennepin Avenue South for a suspected burglary in progress, just after 7 a.m. Monday. The K9, named Chase, was called in to assist after police found evidence that the suspect was possibly still in the building. Chase and his handler, Officer Eric Lukes, were searching the roof when the dog fell and sustained grave injuries. The K9 was taken to the University of Minnesota for medical treatment but couldn’t be saved. Chase has been in service with the Minneapolis Police Department since 2007 and has provided thousands of hours of service to the city and the department, handling assignments deemed too unsafe for his human partners.
