TAMPA, Florida (WFLA) – With the search for Brian Laundrie catching the world’s attention, a familiar face was propelled into the national limelight.
Duane “Dog” Chapman, who starred in A&E’s “Dog the Bounty Hunter” for eight seasons, made the news this week after being seen knocking on the door of Laundrie’s parents’ house in North Port and reportedly searched Fort De Soto for signs of laundry.
“We got a barrage of advice on Brian Laundrie’s whereabouts,” Chien told E! New. âThere is a remarkable amount of information being shared by neighbors, friends and people who may have seen Brian very recently. For those close to Brian, I would like to reiterate that our goal is to capture him alive. His best chance is to bring him in. If family and friends want to help Brian, they will help us locate him so we can help end this peacefully.
As he returns in the headlines, Variety reports Chapman prepares for his return to reality TV.
According to the report, the bounty hunter worked with production company Thinkfactory to present a new show about his daily life and exploits.

Tuesday, family lawyer Steven Bertolino confirmed that Laundrie went camping with her parents in September, before his fiancée Gabby Petito went missing.
