'Dog the Bounty Hunter' threatens to track down War Machine after alleged assault

Following War Machine‘s alleged assault on former girlfriend and porn star Christy Mack, a reality-show bounty hunter has given the fighter 24 hours to turn himself in to authorities.

Once the deadline ends, Duane Chapman (formerly of “Dog the Bounty Hunter” fame, and now starring in “Dog and Beth: On the Hunt” on CMT) says he’ll track down the fighter.

War Machine is currently on the run after an alleged Aug. 8 assault of Mack. The fighter has claimed his innocence, though Mack has posted a chilling account and disturbing photos of the alleged incident. According to Mack, War Machine entered her Las Vegas home and forced her to strip, badly beat her, broke multiple bones and stabbed her.

Champman issued the following warning on Twitter:

.@WarMachine170 better
2Give All You Excuses To The Judge ..you got 24 hrs to turn your self in or I am Coming After YOU.!#CMTDogAndBeth—

Twitter account “@AlphaMaleSeeJay,” purportedly belonging to War Machine’s brother, responded to Champman’s tweet and said the fighter is currently in Canada:

.@DogBountyHunter you will not catch WM. He is in Canada hahaha good luck bro. Ur a felon u cant get here.—

Although it’s hard to tell if Chapman’s threat is genuine or merely an opportunity to publicize his show, it’s bringing more attention to War Machine, who’s gone silent on Twitter over the past couple days.

The fighter (formerly Jon Koppenhvaer before a legal name change) is currently wanted in Las Vegas on a variety of charges, including felony assault with a deadly weapon and felony domestic violence.

War Machine, who had a brief stint with the UFC from 2007-2008, hasn’t fought professionally since November, when he suffered a submission loss to Ron Keslar at Bellator 104. The organization released the 32-year-old fighter this past week following Mack’s allegations.
