The dog's owner says Ella, a 6-month-old cocker spaniel/poodle, was taken by the deliveryman after he delivered a pizza to the apartment.
FLATBUSH, Brooklyn -- An investigation is underway after a customer says her Uber Eats deliveryman stole her dog after delivering food this weekend.Despite a happy reunion on Tuesday, there are still many questions about the bizarre theft.
Melanie Polanco, 22, says Ella, a 6-month-old cocker spaniel/poodle, was taken by the deliveryman after he delivered a pizza to the apartment.Surveillance video shows a man get out of the elevator, pet and then pick up the dog. Later the same person got back into the elevator while still holding the puppy.On Tuesday, a man showed up at the building with Ella, but claimed he was not the person who snatched the pooch. Instead, he said he was paid to make the exchange.
However, Polanco said she doesn't believe him. Detectives took that man into custody while they sort out the details."I'm happy she's home and she's safe, and nothing happened to her," Polanco said."What the customer reported is deeply upsetting and unacceptable. We're continuing to look into this, and have removed this driver's access to the platform. We stand ready to assist law enforcement in their investigation.
Police say they are still searching for the delivery driver. Anyone with information is asked to call the NYPD's Crime Stoppers Hotline at 1-800-577-TIPS .
