GANGSTERS TARGETED GAGA'S DOG'S

Police suspect shooting & heist was initiation ritual

- 

THE Lady Gaga dognapping case has taken a shocking twist: Cops believe the crime — which left the singer’s dog walker fighting for life after being shot in the chest — was part of a murderous street gang initiation!

Gaga’s French bulldogs Koji and Gustav were swiped — after dog walker Ryan Fischer was shot while struggling with one of the two goons — and later returned by a mystery woman.

But L.A. cops are urging Gaga to hold off paying the $500,000 reward for the pups’ return and believe the shooting and dognapping were part of a gang initiation.
