Dog The Bounty Hunter Is Now Florida Man

Author Sean Roberts
He's been seen at multiple gas stations.

If you are actively on the run from justice, you may wanna avoid Wawa stores in Florida. Turns out, Dog The Bounty Hunter has been dropping by several locations recently in search of delectable hoagies and fountain beverages.

Yep, Duane “The Dog” Chapman was photographed with a Charlotte County deputy at a Punta Gorda Wawa location recently. Chapman reportedly told the deputy that he had moved from Colorado to escape the cold winter weather. “The Dog” lived in Hawaii for years, where he started his bail bondsman company and its smash TV show after that. But many things have changed since then. Chapman lost his wife to cancer. He’s since married his 6th wife, Francie Frane. Chapman told the deputy that he and his wife are enjoying the warm temperatures and endless sunshine in Florida.

Chapman told the deputy that he’s always running around the state. That would explain the additional pics on Chapman’s Instagram page, showing him posing with fans at gas pumps in various cities across the state. Chapman’s show, “Dog, The Bounty Hunter” was a huge ratings success, making millions for the TV star and his family. Let’s hope he relaxes and enjoys his new life in our beautiful state of Florida.

Hello Cleveland!

Sean Roberts was conceived in the Corvette Assembly Plant in Bowling Green, Kentucky by two passionate, panel aligning, third shifters who had grown bored with the same ole same ole. Upon birth, he was placed in the trunk of a new Stingray and sent off to find his destiny. That destiny included several stints on radio stations across the United States. Some played punk country gospel, while others focused on Croatian death metal played backwards. After many years and many adventures, Sean wound up on The Shark, where he does shots of tequila while playing the most badass tunes ever created by humankind. He remains humble, however, never forgetting about the lean years...the street corners and dark alleys where he played songs on his car stereo for food and sex. He's on top and he's never gonna stop LIVING THE DREAM!
