Dog the Bounty Hunter has been searching for Brian Laundrie who went missing during the search for his girlfriend Gabby Petito.
Gabby’s body was found and her death has been ruled a homicide, but Brian has been on the run.

According to the New York Post, Dog, real name Duane Lee Chapman, gave over items to the feds to confirm Laundrie’s presence on an island near Florida’s Fort De Soto Park through DNA testing.
“Tracking a fugitive is a marathon, not a sprint,” Dog told the Post. “We are continuing to search for Brian Laundrie. The longer he is on the run, the more dangerous this becomes.”

Last week, he told Fox News that he found a campsite he believed belonged to Laundrie.
“Friday, we found a makeshift, a very primitive camp that had some promising things around it so we’ve gathered up all those things with gloves and baggies and turned them over yesterday to the FBI,” he said. “We’ve got tips from here to Tennessee and beyond. So we are going over those tips today.”
