WESTFIELD, Ind. (WISH) — Westfield police are seeking two suspects in connection with the theft of a 6-month old yellow Labrador retriever.
Police said Thursday on their Facebook page that officers responded Wednesday night to the 200 block of 161st Street in reference to theft of a dog.
Two females entered the property and approached the dog kennel about 6:45 p.m. and again about 8 p.m, police were told. The females petted the dog and asked the residents questions about it.
About 9 p.m., the residents noticed that their dog named Molly was missing from the kennel, police said.
One of the suspects was wearing a gray ball cap, a gray hoodie, black yoga style pants and tennis shoes. The other suspect had shoulder-length brown hair and wore a gray hoodie, black pants and tennis shoes.
At least one suspect and possibly both suspects reportedly entered a black sport-utility vehicle before leaving the area, police said.
