According to the Palm Beach Post, police pulled over Quinten Henderson, 25, Tuesday for speeding. He fled and reportedly hit a deputy’s patrol car in the process.
Police sent a helicopter and K-9 unit to pursue Henderson. K-9 Alex was able to capture Henderson after he tried to drown the K-9 in a nearby canal, police told the publication.
Officials said they found crack cocaine, heroin and marijuana in Henderson’s vehicle.
K-9 Alex is recovering and is doing fine.
