Vision has emerged of the moment Western Bulldogs forward Jamarra Ugle-Hagan was caught up in an alleged 2.30am shooting at a Melbourne nightclub.

The new footage shows Ugle-Hagan nearby when a physical clash breaks out in front of the entrance to the Love Machine bar in Melbourne. 

Ugle-Hagan, 23, is pictured on the left of the screen stood next to two other men. The two other men get into a physical altercation, which quickly spills out onto the street.

Ugle-Hagan appears to watch the fracas from the footpath before walking into the club moments later.

There is no suggestion from Daily Mail Australia that Ugle-Hagan was engaged in any wrongdoing.

Earlier this week, Ugle-Hagan revealed just how close he came to suffering a serious injury during the incident.

The 23-year-old, who has not featured for the Bulldogs this year due to personal issues, explained he spoke with Victoria Police following the incident and was being treated ‘as a witness’.

‘It was that close to me, I’m lucky I wasn’t hit,’ the 2020 No 1 draft pick told the Herald Sun. ‘I wasn’t involved with anything, as the police know.

‘There were 20 people around me and probably another 100 at the venue, but my name is being mentioned like I have some kind of part in it.

‘I’m linked just by being there. It’s trial by media. ‘It is out of my control. 

‘It is traumatising and no one should be near or see any of that.’

The Herald Sun reported Ugle-Hagan had been getting into a rideshare vehicle when the shot was fired.

He added that the incident left him feeling fearful of walking around in public, with the event having heightened his anxiety.

Ugle-Hagan has previously spoken of his commitment to getting back into Luke Beveridge’s first team. He returned to training in recent months, participating in a wellness camp.

However, the footy star admitted being in the nightclub on Sunday morning was not a great look.

‘People need to understand I’m safe,’ he said.

‘Which is the biggest thing – I’m not even involved, but I can’t let this get to me.

‘I’m lucky I’m alive and nothing happened, as it was only a metre away (from me).’

Victoria Police told Daily Mail Australia no injuries had been reported following the nightclub incident.

‘Armed Crime Squad detectives are investigating a firearms incident outside a licensed premises in Prahran on 17 August,’ Victoria Police said.

Ugle-Hagan says he is committed to making a return to footy and has opened up on the steps he is taking to address mental health issues

‘Police were called to Malvern Road about 2.25am following reports of a physical altercation between a group of people.

‘It is understood that a firearm was discharged during the altercation before the parties fled the scene.

‘At this stage, there have been no reports of injuries. The investigation remains ongoing.’

Earlier in August, the Bulldogs star, who has not played for his club since March due to mental health concerns, revealed to News Corp that he was ‘getting much better’ as he looked to make his return to football.

‘I’m journaling every morning as soon as I wake up.

‘I feel like that is more in my interest now to get me through this tough time.

‘I love training myself and putting myself through something I can get better at. It is an easier way for me.’

He added that he has been spending time with his supportive friends to help keep his mental health on track.

Ugle-Hagan, who was the Bulldogs’ leading goal scorer during the 2024 campaign, has made 67 AFL appearances for the Melbourne-based club, having debuted in 2021.
