Detectives are comprehensively investigating all aspects of the deadly incident, the sheriff's office said. This involves gathering witness statements, conducting forensic testing, subpoenaing evidence, and executing search warrants to ensure that every aspect of the case has been thoroughly examined and investigated. Investigators emphasized that they are taking the case very seriously and are carefully collecting evidence to reconstruct what led to Anthony's death.

This is a tragic loss, and Duane "Dog" Chapman and his wife, Francie, are greatly affected by the tragedy. The couple broke their silence following the incident, releasing a statement to the public. Francie, who has Gregory with her deceased husband, is taking the painful situation particularly hard. Both Dog and Francie have grieved the death of their son on social media, and the family has undoubtedly been shaken up over the loss. The circumstances of the shooting may become clearer as the investigation develops. In the meantime, the Collier County Sheriff's Office will continue to keep the community informed and provide updates on this unfathomable tragedy.
