Dognapping: Yorkie stolen off Detroit porch in broad daylight

DETROIT – A Yorkie was stolen off a Detroit porch Saturday afternoon, and the owners are devastated.

The Yorki, Bella, is 5-years-old. She was from a neighborhood near the Lodge Freeway and Wyoming Avenue.

BC Cooley got emotional talking about Bella to Local 4. It’s been two days since the Yorkie was taken from their front porch.

“People ain’t got no conscience, and if you ain’t got no conscience, you just do stuff like that,” said Cooley.

When the family looked at their home security system, they were shocked to see a man walk right up and take Bella in broad daylight.

“It was devastating because who steals people’s dogs, and then you come on the porch, and the camera is right there,” said Denise, who also lives at the home. “If you see her, just bring her back, just bring her back.”
