Singer and actor Tyrese Gibson was arrested on Friday after he turned himself in on an animal cruelty charge. The \u201cFast and Furious\u201d star was subsequently released on a $20,000 surety bond<\/a> the same day.<\/p>\n

Per jail records, Gibson\u2019s arrest was for a cruelty to animals charge he received in relation to his neighbor\u2019s dog being mauled to death by some of his animals. According to NBC News<\/a>, on Sept. 18, four of Gibson\u2019s Cane Corso dogs were seen running through a neighborhood where they attacked and killed a neighbor\u2019s 5-year-old Cavalier King Charles Spaniel named Henry.<\/p>\n

At the time, Henry\u2019s owner let the dog outside around 10 p.m. to go to the bathroom. When the owner returned minutes later, they found their pet wounded and bloodied in their driveway. <\/p>\n

NBC News reported that earlier that evening, a woman told animal control she was unable to get to her car because four Cane Corsos were at her door. After animal control officer escorted the woman to her vehicle, a friend of Gibson\u2019s later retrieved the dogs.<\/p>\n

Representation for Gibson, attorney Gabe Banks, who reportedly admitted that he thinks the dogs were responsible for Henry\u2019s death, issued a statement on the matter.<\/p>\n

\u201cMr. Tyrese Gibson wishes to extend his deepest condolences to the family who lost their beloved dog in this tragic incident,\u201d the message read, which mentioned that Gibson was out of town when the incident occurred. \u201cHis heart is truly broken, and he has been praying for the family constantly, hoping they may one day find it in their hearts to forgive him.\u201d<\/p>\n

Gibson himself also issued a statement in the same post saying, \u201cAfter nearly 40 years of being a passionate dog lover\u2014raising everything from Pomeranians, Yorkies, Shih Tzus, Maltese, to larger breeds like Shar Peis\u2014my dogs have only ever been treated as family. They\u2019ve never been trained to harm, never spent a single day in attack or protection training, and they\u2019ve grown up playing with kids and smaller dogs in my home.\u201d<\/p>\n

He continued: \u201cThat\u2019s why this incident has left me shocked, devastated, and heartbroken for the family affected. As an empath, my heart hurts deeply for their unimaginable loss, and I\u2019ve been trying to reach out directly to express my sorrow and condolences.\u201d<\/p>\n

While Gibson initially refused to turn over the dogs to Fulton County police and animal control, he shared that two of the dogs have been placed in new homes. <\/p>\n
