Sean Gannon on Friday after three days of deliberation by the jury.<\/p>\n<p>Gannon was fatally shot in 2018 while serving a warrant for possible parole violations at Latanowich\u2019s home. Gannon\u2019s K-9 Nero was also shot, but remained survived from his injury.<\/p>\n<p>Latanowich\u2019s defense previously argued he had not known Gannon was a police officer and was acting in self defense. The defense lawyer added Latanowich was fearful of his life as the officers were acting out of aggression.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">A jury has ensured justice for slain <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/yarmouthpolice?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@yarmouthpolice<\/a> Sgt.
