A Police dog has been named after Ozzy Osbourne, as tributes pour in following his death.

His death was confirmed by his family on Tuesday evening.

In a post on social media, West Midlands Police said:

“We’re really sad to hear about the death of Ozzy Osbourne.

“Our thoughts are with Sharon, his family, the members of Black Sabbath, and his millions of fans around the world.

“In honour of Black Sabbath’s final concert here in Birmingham earlier this month, we named a whole litter of police pups after the band, including our very own Ozzy 🐾

“His legacy will live on and we can only hope our little Ozzy grows up to be just as much of a legend.”
