Dog Stolen in Residential Burglary

On Sunday, June 17, at approx. 10:45 a.m., officers responded to a residence in the 2500 block of Quincy Avenue regarding a burglary, which resulted in the theft of a French Bulldog.

When officers arrived, they learned the residents were in their home when they heard a noise coming from another room. When one of the residents went to investigate, he saw an unknown male subject standing in the living room. When the suspect and resident saw one another, they ran off in different directions. The suspect then fled the home and left in a vehicle.

It was at that time the residents realized their French Bulldog “Archie” was missing, along with some miscellaneous tools. It was determined the suspect had entered the home through an open door.

Through the investigation, video footage was located, which displayed a vehicle, described as a dark gray Nissan Versa, pulling up to the home and a male subject getting out of the front passenger door. A second suspect can be seen driving the vehicle, along with a third suspect who was a passenger in the backseat. The suspect that entered the home is described as a male Hispanic with a shaved head and facial hair, 5’8” to 5’11” tall, 170-180 lbs., wearing black sunglasses, a black hooded long-sleeve sweatshirt, dark jeans and grey tennis shoes.

The investigation remains ongoing.
