    Cliff Notes – Dog the Bounty Hunter’s grandson shot dead by own father in tragic accident

    • Dog the Bounty Hunter, real name Duane Chapman, is mourning the death of his 13-year-old grandson Anthony, who was allegedly shot by his father, Gregory Zecca, in a tragic accident.
    • The incident, described as an ‘isolated incident,’ is under investigation, with no arrests made as of yet; Dog and his wife Francie have requested prayers during this difficult time.

    Dog the Bounty Hunter’s grandson shot dead by own father in ‘tragic accident’

    Dog the Bounty Hunter is mourning the death of his grandson. Dog the Bounty Hunter is grieving after an ‘incomprehensible’ family tragedy.

    The 78-year-old reality star, whose real name is Duane Chapman, is mourning after his stepson Gregory Zecca, 38, allegedly shot and killed his 13-year-old son Anthony in what has been described as a ‘tragic accident’.

    Dog is not directly related to Anthony or Gregory, who his wife Francie shares with her late husband.

    In a statement to TMZ, a spokesperson for Dog and Francie said: ‘We are grieving as a family over this incomprehensible tragic accident and would ask for continued prayers as we grieve the loss of our beloved grandson, Anthony.’

    Police confirmed to the outlet that they responded to a call at around 8pm local time.

    The shooting has been described as an ‘isolated incident’ with no arrests made as of yet, while an investigation is ongoing.

    Anthony Zecca has died aged 13

    Dog and Francie got married in 2021 after both losing their respective partners to cancer.

    ‘For a living, she’s a rancher and she recently lost her husband to cancer six months before I lost Beth Chapman,’ he told TMZ Live in 2020.

    ‘So we hopped on the phone, started talking to each other, crying and consoling each other and then one thing led to another and it’s just incredible that I’ve been able to meet someone like her.

    Dog previously opened up on how Francie helped him heal

    ‘With Francie, I’m allowed to speak about Beth, we speak about her husband. We cry. We hold each other.’

    Dog, who has 13 children, revealed how Francie was helping him heal from the death of his wife Beth.

    He said: ‘I am a fixer. I have to catch bad guys. I got to be at the top of my game. I can’t feel sorry for myself or guilty.

    ‘I got to go out there and make a difference. That’s what I do for a living so I’ve got to man up. She helps me do that.’
