A carjacking suspect was apprehended by a police K-9 after a pursuit across multiple counties and freeways in Southern California. The suspect was taken into custody at the end of a two-hour, slow-speed chase from Fontana to Valencia. The incident has sparked controversy as the suspect appeared to be surrendering when the K-9 took him down. Dramatic video footage of the takedown on the 5 Freeway has been widely circulated. The use of force by the K-9 handler is being questioned, with concerns raised about whether the suspect made an aggressive move or if the handler acted prematurely.
