LOS ANGELES (KABC) -- Authorities are searching for the man accused of shooting Lady Gaga's dogwalker in Hollywood last year after he was mistakenly released from jail, Eyewitness News has learned.

James Howard Jackson, 18, was released from jail Wednesday afternoon, according to booking records, which also show the charges against him were dismissed.

Details regarding how the charges against Jackson were dismissed and how exactly he was erroneously freed were not immediately available, but police say the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department is now looking for him.

Jackson is one of three men charged last year with attempted murder, conspiracy to commit robbery and second-degree robbery for the shooting of Lady Gaga's dog walker, Ryan Fischer, according to the L.A. County District Attorney's Office.

4. Apparently old charges were dismissed because

a replacement criminal case was going to be filed. But the replacement charges were not immediately filed so they just released him. Oopsie.
