Angie Harmon, an artist, sued Instacart and its driver Christopher Reid, alleging that they fatally shot her canine during a March supply.
Harmon is suing Reid and Instacart for carelessness- total neglect, theft, invasion of privacy, and intentional infliction of injury, according to court records obtained by Fox News.
The actress, commonly known for jobs on Law &, Order and Rizolli &, Isles, even reportedly requested a trial by jury to consider the financial problems, which she believes is more than ,$ 25, 000.
As Breitbart News reported , last month, Harmon , accused the delivery driver of shooting and killing her dog, Oliver, after delivering an order to her home over Easter weekend.
The actress wrote in an Instagram post that” this Easter weekend a man delivering groceries for# Instacart shot andamp, killed our precious Oliver.” ” He got out , of his car, delivered the food &, THEN shot our dog”.
Harmon continued, claiming that the driver shot her dog in part because he was aware that a home surveillance camera was n’t recording him.
” Our ring camera was charging in the house, which he saw &, then knew he was n’t being recorded”, she claimed. ” The , police let him go b/c he claimed’ self defense.’ He had his pants torn, and neither did he have a scratch or bite on him.
” He , shot our dog with my daughters &, myself at home &, just kept saying,’ yeah, I shot your dog. Yeah I did.’ We are completely traumatized &, beyond devastated at the loss of our beloved boy &, family member” , , the actress added.
A , Charlotte- Mecklenburg Police Department spokesperson told Fox News that the March 30 , incident was investigated, and no charges were filed as a result.
A delivery driver arrived at the residence to deliver consumable goods, according to the spokesperson. The driver” told police that a dog attacked him while he was at the residence and that he defended himself by firing a single gunshot, striking and fatally wounding the dog,” the police said.
The spokesperson added that “another , dog was present at the residence but did not attack”.
Instacart, meanwhile, has permanently deactivated Reid’s account, telling Fox News,” Our hearts continue to be with Ms. Harmon and her family following this disturbing incident”.
The company continued,” We have no tolerance for violence of any kind, and the shopper account has been permanently removed from our platform,” adding that we are unable to comment on pending litigation.
