(UTVNEWS | COLOMBO) – Lady Gaga’s dog walker Ryan Fischer says he has had part of his lung removed after being shot in the chest by a dognapper in Los Angeles.
Mr Fischer described how he had been making a “remarkably fast” recovery when his lung collapsed and he had to have surgery.
He is now out of hospital and at home.
Mr Fischer was walking the singer’s three French bulldogs in Hollywood in February when he was confronted by a man carrying a semi-automatic handgun.
The gunman shot Mr Fischer and he and an accomplice took two of the dogs, Koji and Gustav. A third bulldog, named Miss Asia, ran away and was later recovered by police.
The stolen dogs were returned unharmed a few days later by a woman – apparently uninvolved in the incident – who handed them into a Los Angeles police station.
