Angie Harmon has filed a lawsuit against Instacart and an Instacart driver who she alleges shot and killed her family dog while making a delivery at her North Carolina home last month.

In court documents obtained by People Wednesday, Harmon is accusing the grocery delivery service and the driver, identified as Christopher Anthoney Reid, for alleged trespassing, conversion, negligence, negligent supervision/hiring, invasion of privacy and negligent misrepresentation in connection with the incident, which took place over Easter weekend.

She is seeking at least $25,000 in damages.

The actor, whose credits include Law & Order and Rizolli & Isles, also said in the lawsuit that Reid had presented himself on the Instacart app as an older woman named Merle before making the delivery.

Shortly after Reid arrived at her home, Harmon says she heard what sounded like a gun shot and feared for the safety of her children, who were in the backyard with another adult.

By the time Harmon arrived outside, however, she discovered Reid described in the suit as a tall and intimidating younger man just as he was placing a gun in front of his pants, potentially in his pant pocket. Her dog, a beagle mix named Oliver, had been shot and later died at a veterinarians office.

Harmon, who first made the claims in an April 1 Instagram post , spoke at length about the claims in an emotional Good Morning America interview that aired Wednesday.
