Dog the Bounty Hunter's Store Robbed, Beth Champan's Belongings Taken

Dog the Bounty Hunter has a new case, and this time it's personal after someone stole some of his late wife's items from their family-owned merchandising store in Edgewater, Colorado.

Duane "Dog" Chapman offered a large cash reward for any information about who might be responsible for the theft of his late wife's items from his family's store in a tweet sent late Friday night. According to a story from the Blast, the store owned by Dog and his late wife was ransacked earlier this week with thousands of dollars in clothing, and "Dog and Beth" merchandise taken by the thieves.

Duane's wife, Beth Chapman, died in a Honolulu hospital in June at the age of 51.

"The Bible says it is an unforgivable sin to steal from the dead LARGE CASH REWARD FOR ANY INFORMATION FIR WHO IS RESPONSIBLE FOR THIS !!!" Chapman wrote.

"Not only did the thieves take thousands of dollars of clothing, these criminals took priceless personal belongings of our beloved Beth, including tributes to her kindly left by our amazing fans," a statement obtained by CNN said. "We are working with our friends in law enforcement to find these perpetrators, and are offering a cash reward to anyone who provides information about their identity. To who ever did this, you better watch out. Dog is coming for you."

Some of the items taken by the thieves included Beth's personal bounty hunting gear and other priceless family mementos.

The couple starring in their own reality TV series "Dog the Bounty Hunter" which followed the Chapmans and their adventures with their family-owned bounty hunting business. The series aired between 2004 and 2012 with fans across the world admiring the couple for their compassionate and dogged determination to find their subjects.

A new series, titled "Dog's Most Wanted" will premiere Sept. 4 and chronicle Beth's final battle with cancer.
