Duane 'Dog the Bounty Hunter' Chapman joins 'Fox News Saturday Night' host Jimmy Failla on a ride through Manhattan to dish on his latest updates.
Dog the Bounty Hunter’s stepson has been charged after authorities say he fatally shot his 13-year-old son.
Fox News Digital can confirm Gregory Zecca, 39, was arrested Feb. 3 and now faces two charges – aggravated manslaughter of a child with a firearm and use of a firearm while under the influence of alcohol.
According to the incident report obtained by Fox News Digital, Collier County deputies found 13-year-old Anthony Zecca dead at a Naples apartment on July 19, 2025. Deputies responded to a 911 call initially described as an "accidental" shooting, with dispatch notes stating a caller screaming, "Dad shot son."
