Dog the Bounty Hunter's Stepson Disables Instagram After Shooting

Duane “Dog the Bounty Hunter” Chapman’s stepson, Gregory Zecca, has disabled his Instagram following a family tragedy.

After news broke that his 13-year-old son, Anthony, was shot and killed in a freak accident, Gregory’s Instagram seemingly disappeared from public view.

“We are grieving as a family over this incomprehensible tragic accident,” Dog and his wife, Francie Chapman, said in a statement to TMZ on Sunday, July 20. “[We] would ask for continued prayers as we grieve the loss of our beloved grandson, Anthony.”

According to the Collier County Sheriff’s Office, authorities responded to a call about a shooting in Naples, Florida, on Saturday, July 19, shortly after 8 p.m.

While police say this was an “isolated incident,” the Collier County Sheriff’s Office confirmed they were conducting a death investigation.

“Our detectives are conducting a thorough investigation looking into all the elements of this tragic incident,” police told Us on Monday, July 21. “The investigation includes statements from witnesses who were at the scene, forensic testing, subpoenas and search warrants.”

No arrests have been made in the investigation. According to TMZ, Gregory accidentally shot his son in a freak accident at their apartment.

Before Gregory disabled his Instagram, social media users were able to see pictures of the father-son duo, including a memory at a shooting range.

“Getting some range time in with our buddies @franktownfirearms,” Gregory reportedly wrote via Instagram in a throwback post.

While Gregory works with his stepdad on his bounty hunting team, both Dog and Francie have shared glimpses into their family bond off the clock on social media.

In July 2023, the couple shared a selfie with Anthony as he celebrated his birthday.

“The Boy Is 11 Today & We’re On Our Way To Bush Gardens For Birthday Fun !!!” Francie wrote via Instagram at the time.

After Dog and Francie got married in September 2022, the bride gave thanks to the family members who were always supportive.

“Greg, Alex & Anthony, Dog & I Love You Guys Dearly !!” Francie wrote via Instagram with photos from the wedding day. “Thank You For Always Standing By Us .”

Dog also shared how special the day would be nearly three years after he lost late wife Beth Chapman to cancer.

“I have a large family and most of them are going to be here for it. I love all my kids and it’s going to be great to have so many people here to celebrate,” Dog told Us in August 2021. “We’ve spent so long on this to ensure it’s going to be just perfect and believe me, nothing is going to get in the way of us.”
