An Amazon delivery driver has been arrested after allegedly stealing a French bulldog while delivering packages in a Florida neighborhood.
The Hernando County Sheriff's Office said in a statement that deputies had responded to a report of a missing dog on Dec. 23 in Spring Hill, Florida — about 50 miles north of Tampa. Upon arrival, authorities said the owner told them that her French bulldog, Kali — valued at around $4,000 — had escaped from the home's fenced backyard.

Deputies said a neighbor later notified the owner that they had seen Kali walk up to a Hispanic man in his mid-20s, who was dressed in an Amazon uniform and driving a white Cheverolet Cruz. The neighbor said the man had just finished delivering a package to a nearby residence, and began interacting with Kali, before grabbing the dog and driving off.
According to police, another neighbor later notified the dog's owner that they too had witnessed Kali's abduction.
