Western Bulldogs’ Jamarra Ugle-Hagan Involved in Nightclub Shooting Incident

The troubled Western Bulldogs forward was outside Love Machine on Chapel Street with a friend when the incident took place in the early hours of yesterday morning.

9News Chief Football Reporter Tom Morris revealed Ugle-Hagan’s friend became involved in a verbal altercation with another group before a fight broke out and a gun was fired about 2.25am.

It is believed Ugle-Hagan, who has not played any football this year due to mental health concerns, wasn’t physically involved in the scuffle and that he walked back into the venue following the shooting incident.

Victoria Police told 9News police are now investigating whether Ugle-Hagan had any involvement in the incident.

No arrests have been made in connection to the shooting.

The AFL and the Western Bulldogs declined to comment, telling 9News the latest incident is a police matter. 

9News revealed the white Jeep Cherokee was driven to several service stations, where a group of masked thieves allegedly carried out armed robberies.

It’s alleged the group first targeted a milk bar in Keysborough about 7.30pm, before travelling to a service station on Warrigal Road in Cheltenham about an hour later.

The Western Bulldogs said the club was aware of the incidents and were satisfied Ugle-Hagan was not involved.

Three shots were fired at 71-year-old Doug Lee at his Glen Iris home.

Ugle-Hagan was questioned by police and has been cleared of any wrongdoing.

In a podcast, the 23-year-old said he’d given his car to a mate because he didn’t trust himself driving.
