Tributes have been paid to a police dog who was killed on duty while chasing burglars.
PD Jet, a six-year-old German shepherd, was hit by a train on Wednesday morning while pursuing suspects linked to a commercial burglary in Yate, south Gloucestershire.
Avon and Somerset Police said Jet went on to an obscured section of railway line and was struck by a train.
Despite receiving emergency veterinary treatment, his injuries were too severe and the decision was taken to put him to sleep.
It is with tremendous sadness that we announce the death of PD Jet, who was injured following an incident whilst on duty yesterday morning (14 April).
