New details surfaced about the shooting of Lady Gaga’s dog walker and the theft of two of her French bulldogs.
In a video obtained by TMZ, it appears that the entire terrible ordeal was captured by a neighbor’s surveillance video. The disturbing and graphic video first shows a man walking dogs on the sidewalk.
Then a light-colored four-door sedan stops beside the man before two people get out of the back seat and a fight begins. One of the men yells, “Give up.”
The dog walker tries to fight back while the dogs are grabbed – one of them manages to escape – while the attackers snatch the other two animals.

Then a loud shot is heard and the dog walker falls to the ground screaming that he was shot as the car drove away.
A Gaga representative confirmed to People magazine that the footage was of the theft and was taken by a neighbor. According to TMZ, Gaga’s team “wanted” the surveillance video “to be seen to capture the sniper and retrieve his dogs”.
Fox News contacted Gaga’s representative for comment.

The attack occurred on Wednesday night when Gaga’s dog walker, who is “a friend” of the family, took care of the Oscar winner’s three dogs. Lady Gaga has since offered $ 500,000 to return her dogs, Koji and Gustave, without question.
Those with information about the case should send an email to [email protected], the singer’s representative told People.
