After the September 18 tragedy occurred near his Buckhead, Ga., home, the star said on September 22 that he would give up his canines to Animal Services, but when police arrived to his house that day, he reportedly asked for a few more days to make his final decision.
However, when the police returned that night with a warrant, Gibson and his pooches were nowhere to be found, a report revealed.

Inside the Tragedy

The Fulton County Police Animal Services Captain said the incident is 'negligence on his part.'
A local network spoke to the neighbor, Harrison Parker, who explained he let his 5-year-old Cavalier King Charles Spaniel out in his yard and found him dead on the driveway not long after. He saw Gibson's animals on his outside camera.
"Not hearing him around, it’s just awful. He was one of the sweetest dogs and to have him get murdered is, it’s indescribable," Parked spilled of his beloved pooch, who suffered internal bleeding and puncture wounds.
Captain Nicole Dwyer of Fulton County Police Animal Services shamed the Fast and Furious alum for not being more responsible.
"It is negligence on his part as the homeowner and animal owner, just letting them roam free," she said. "And now they have killed an innocent animal."

Gibson's dogs have caused problems in the neighborhood before.
A police report cited at least five other occasions of the star's dogs being loose.
"Our priority is the safety of the community and when there’s so many incidents of dogs, especially large dogs like this, getting out and then killing an animal, you know, what’s next? A child?" Dwyer pondered. "Our main priority is safety and that’s why we want the dogs in custody."
Gibson had also posted videos of his pets on social media admitting they were "aggressive."
