Arrest Warrant Issued for Actor Tyrese Gibson in Connection with Neighbor’s Dog’s Death
Fulton County Police Confirm Incident Involving Tyrese Gibson’s Dogs
An arrest warrant has been issued for film star Tyrese Gibson, known for his role in the “Fast and Furious” franchise, in connection with the fatal incident involving a neighbor’s dog. According to Fulton County Police, the event occurred on September 18 in the Buckhead area, resulting in the death of a 5-year-old King Charles Cavalier Spaniel named Henry.
Details of the Incident and Ongoing Investigation
Police reports indicate that Gibson’s four Cane Corso dogs—recognized for their size and guarding abilities—were responsible for the attack. The neighbor had allowed Henry into the front yard, only to discover him deceased within five minutes. Security footage reportedly captured the Cane Corsos lingering near a door across from the neighbor’s property shortly before the attack unfolded.
In a related incident, a woman from a nearby residence called 911, stating she was unable to access her vehicle because Gibson’s dogs were blocking her path. Animal control officers responded promptly to ensure her safety.
Repeated Warnings and Legal Actions
Police Captain Nicole Dwyer, head of the Animal Services Division, revealed that Gibson’s dogs had reportedly been roaming freely on five separate occasions over the ten days leading up to the dog’s death. Multiple warnings were said to have been issued to Gibson regarding the behavior of his pets.
On September 22, Gibson expressed his willingness to surrender the dogs to Animal Services but later requested additional time. Authorities warned him that a search warrant would be sought should he fail to cooperate. His ultimate refusal led police officers to secure both a search warrant for his property and an arrest warrant for charges of animal cruelty.
Search for Tyrese Gibson and Current Status
Officers attempted to execute the search warrant on the evening of the decision but found that Gibson was absent from the property, and the dogs had already been relocated. The case continues to be a point of focus for local law enforcement and animal services agencies.
