FBI Dog To Be Memorialized



Southfield (WWJ)  -- The FBI will hold a memorial for the K-9 killed during a shootout in Dearborn and the dog's name will be added to a memorial wall.  

Freddy was a nearly 3-year-old Belgian Malinois who was killed Wednesday during a gun battle between agents and Luqman Ameen Abdullah, described as the radical leader of a Sunni Islam group.

"In the line of duty, Freddy gave his life for his team.  He will be missed by his FBI family," the FBI said in a statement. 

Freddy will be buried in Quantico, Va.

Anyone wishing to send a card to Freddy's handlers can address it to:

Freddy's Team,
c/o FBI,
477 Michigan Ave., 26th Floor,
Detroit, Mich., 48226.

Anyone wishing to donate money to a K-9 Law Enforcement Memorial in memory of Freddy can send it to:
