Thief Stuffs Puppies In His Pants At Pet Store In Florida (VIDEO)

LOOK: Heartless Thief Stuffs Puppies Down His Pants

A thief was caught on security cameras stuffing puppies down his pants -- right in front of customers at a pet shop.

Police are searching for the suspect after the puppy-pants heist at the Puppy Shop in Orlando, Fla. Saturday. The store owner told WESH that the man came in, scoped out the shop, and came back later in the day to lift the pooches. He also came back a third time to steal even more.

The suspect can be seen in the video looking around before lifting his shirt and then putting several doggies in his sweats, including a miniature dachshund and a pug. They're both worth about $800, News 13 reports.

He walked out of the store with children in tow. News 13 reports that another man seen in the video may have been an accomplice.

Police are offering a $250 reward for information leading to the suspect's arrest.
