Angie Harmon, best known for her role in the hit TV series “Rizzoli & Isles,” recently shared a heartbreaking incident on her Instagram account. The actress revealed that her family dog, Oliver, had been shot and killed by a delivery person at her North Carolina home.
According to Harmon, the delivery person claimed self-defense, stating that they shot Oliver after being attacked. However, Harmon pointed out that the delivery person did not sustain any injuries or torn clothing from the alleged attack, raising questions about the justification for using lethal force.
The actress expressed shock and devastation over the loss of their beloved pet, describing the incident as traumatic for her family. In response to the incident, Instacart, the grocery delivery service involved, immediately suspended the shopper account responsible.
The Charlotte-Mecklenburg police reported that no criminal charges have been filed so far, as the investigation is still ongoing. The security camera at Harmon’s home was unfortunately not able to capture the incident, leaving many details unclear.
It is important to note that another dog at the home was present during the incident but did not attack the delivery person. Harmon and her family are currently working with law enforcement on the investigation.
The news of Oliver’s tragic death has sparked outrage and sadness among Harmon’s fans and the public. Many have called for justice for Oliver and are advocating for increased safety measures for pets during deliveries to prevent similar incidents from happening in the future. The incident serves as a reminder of the importance of protecting pets and ensuring their safety in all situations.
