A police K9 Cort was left injured during an arrest of Kurt Dasilva after the Fairfield Police Department received a call of a break-in.
Kurt stabbed and bit a police K9 while evading arrest which left the dog badly wounded.
The chain reaction began when a male suspect broke into the home of an elderly victim located in the 1700 block of Elm Street in the North Bay city. The victim managed to flee the house while dialing 911.
