Jackson and others drove around Hollywood on Feb. 24, 2021 ‘looking for French bulldogs’ before encountering Gaga’s dog walker Ryan Fischer, 41.
Jackson shot Fischer during the robbery near Sunset Boulevard, during which two of the dogs were taken.
The pop star’s dogs were returned two days later by a woman who claimed she had found them tied to a pole.
Authorities said the Lady Gaga connection was a coincidence and the singer’s pets were not targeted due to her celebrity status.
The man who shot Lady Gaga´s dog walker and stole her French bulldogs last year took a plea deal and was sentenced to 21 years in prison on Monday, officials said.
Jackson shot Fischer during the robbery near Sunset Boulevard, during which two of the dogs were taken.
A nearby doorbell camera recorded the dog walker screaming ‘Oh, my God! I´ve been shot!’ and ‘Help me!’ and ‘I´m bleeding out from my chest!’
Fischer lost part of a lung. About a month after the crime, he posted on Instagram that his recovering has gone well.
The pop star’s dogs were returned two days later by a woman who claimed she had found them tied to a pole and asked about Lady Gaga’s offer of a $500,000 reward if the dogs were returned ‘no questions asked.’
The singer was in Rome at the time filming a movie. The woman was charged with receiving stolen property and the father of another suspect is charged with helping him avoid arrest.
