Two arrested for stealing Doberman Pinscher puppy from woman and her child in Bloomington
Two people were arrested for stealing a Doberman Pinscher puppy from a mother and her child in Bloomington over the weekend. Deputies were called to the intersection of Valley Boulevard and Alder Avenue at around 3:45 p.m. on Sunday after learning that the puppy, named "Blue," was stolen by two suspects in the area, according to a press release from the San Bernardino County Sheriff's Department. "The victim stated two suspects, one female and one male, approached her and asked questions about Blue," the release said. "They had an engaging conversation about dogs and the care of dogs." While the conversation continued, deputies say that one of the suspects asked to hold Blue and the victim allowed her. At that point, the male suspect asked the victim for information, which caused her to reach into her car for a card. "When she looked back up, both suspects were running away with Blue," the release said. "They entered an awaiting vehicle and sped away." Investigators were able to promptly identify the suspects after showing the victim a photo. Once she positively identified the woman, deputies were able to secure an arrest warrant for 21-year-old San Bernardino woman Milagro De Las Mercedez. "Deputies from the Fontana Station went to De Las Mercedez's residence and located both suspects, along with Blue," deputies said. De Las Mercedez and Elian Perez, an 18-year-old man from San Bernardino, were both arrested, while Blue was returned to his family. Anyone who knows more is asked to contact deputies at (909) 356-6767.
