NEWARK, N.J. (1010 WINS) — Newark police are seeking the public's help after a French bulldog was snatched by four young men as a 13-year-old boy walked him last Friday.
Police said the boy was walking Ted "Teddy" Dibiase, the family pet, in the 400 block of South 19th Street around 2:40 p.m. when a white Jeep with the suspects inside pulled up behind him.
That's when the occupants got out of the car and snatched "Teddy" before fleeing eastbound on South Orange Avenue.
Police released images of "Teddy" on Thursday as they continue to search for him and the men.
