According to a complaint, the dognapping suspects shut off the headlights on their sedan once Fischer turned onto a secluded street.

Following him, the trio reportedly hit and choked Fisher before one of the suspects shot him with a semiautomatic handgun, striking him once and leaving him on the street, the prosecutors stated.
