The Chapman family faces unimaginable sorrow after 13-year-old Anthony, step-grandson of reality star Duane “Dog” Chapman, died in what investigators are calling a tragic accident. The Friday night shooting in Naples, Florida involved the boy’s father, Gregory Zecca, though officials emphasize the incident appears unintentional.
In a heartfelt statement, the family described their “deep sorrow” and requested prayers as they grieve. While the investigation continues, no charges have been filed. This heartbreaking loss adds to the family’s history of pain – both Duane and his wife Francie had previously lost spouses to cancer before finding love with each other.
Francie once shared how their mutual experience with grief created a special bond between them. As the family processes this latest tragedy, supporters worldwide are offering condolences, remembering the young life cut short in such devastating circumstances.
