A suspect mistakenly released from a Los Angeles County jail where he was being held on suspicion of shooting Lady Gaga’s dog walker and stealing her French bulldogs has been recaptured, authorities said.

James Howard Jackson, 19, was arrested on Wednesday nearly five months after he was released from jail while awaiting trial “due to a clerical error”, the county Sheriff’s Department said in a statement.
