The 23-year-old AFL player has been cleared of any wrongdoing after a 71-year-old grandfather was shot at.

Douglas Lee, 71, was returning to his Glen Iris home on June 11 when his car was shot at three times.

Lee recounted, “I heard a gunshot, which caught me off guard. As I looked up, a car was speeding towards me… I braced for impact, but they sped by and fired twice more.”

The grandfather wasn’t injured.

The shooters sped away in a four-wheel drive, which police suspect was Ugle-Hagan’s.

Police believe the shooting was a case of mistaken identity.

In a podcast on June 3, Ugle-Hagan discussed his struggles with mental health, mentioning that he reached a point where he felt it necessary to give his car to a friend to avoid driving it himself.

“I just didn’t trust myself driving,” he told Rip Through It podcast hosts.

Nearly two weeks after the drive-by shooting, Ugle-Hagan reported on his social media that another vehicle, a Toyota ute belonging to him, had been stolen.

It’s understood Ugle-Hagan has been spoken to by police and ruled out as a suspect.

9News is not suggesting he’s involved in criminal activity.

Detectives are still trying to work out who was in the car at the time of the incident.

The Western Bulldogs Football Club has said in a statement that it “is aware of a police incident involving a vehicle registered to Jamarra Ugle-Hagan”.

“The Club is satisfied that Jamarra was not involved in the incident and that he had not been in possession of the vehicle for some time before it occurred,” the statement reads.

“Jamarra has fully cooperated with the subsequent police investigation.

“The Club is continuing to support Jamarra as he works through the management plan that was developed with him earlier this year.”
