A K-9 unit in East San Jose detained a barricaded homicide suspect early Thursday morning, according to police.
The police dog took the man into custody at about 3:10 a.m. in the 2500 block of Vista Verde Drive after an hours-long standoff, police said. The unidentified suspect was transported to a hospital for injuries not considered life-threatening.
The suspect holed up inside a stranger's house, but the resident wasn't home at the time, police told NBC Bay Area.
The details of what led up to the standoff were not immediately available.
